Description
The Waikato paddle is suited to lake, river and moderate open water paddling excursions due to its asymmetrical blade.
This popular touring paddle is comfortable to use, and has drip rings to stop water from running down the shaft onto your hands.
Reinforced polypropylene blades. Shaft has moulded plastic handgrips with a right-hand raised index.
Choice of paddle shafts
• Aluminium shaft is durable and stiff, but is heavier and cold to the touch.
• Fibreglass shaft is lighter, flexible and warmer to grip.
• Factory upgrade to a two-piece shaft.
Blade material: Glass-reinforced polypropylene
Blade size: 43 x 20cm
Weight: 1160g
Factory Upgrade to a Two-piece Paddle
But wait, there’s more. Upgrade to a two-piece paddle and get Alpha Outdoors ‘Free Shipping’ to NZ cities and major towns. This is because you have to pay an extra handling charge to courier one-piece paddles (except if they are packaged with a new kayak), so it is not a lot more to buy the take-apart shaft option.
Two-piece ‘split shaft’ take-apart paddle. Perfect for travelling. Easy to stow as an emergency back-up paddle.
- Grooved plastic spigot
- Push button lock
- Can be fitted to aluminium or fibreglass shafts
