Are there different standup paddle designs? |
|
There are a few different paddles on the market today made from wood, aluminum, and carbon.
All have different blade shapes and styles. For the recreational paddler you are fine with aluminum and
wood, however they can be too stiff and heavy, with t-top grips and round shafts. Also, some of the
paddles have blades with scoops that do not release cleanly and can catch in the waves.
Pohaku Beachboy Paddles are designed by the new pioneers of beachboy paddling and offer a carbon
tapered flex, oval grip shafts, ergonomic top grips and a blade that is powerful, effective, and
releases well. These paddles are for use in all ocean and wave conditions; they are 100% carbon,
lightweight, and strong.
