VE Explorer Aircore Carbon, 2 Piece Carbon Shaft

Supplied as a 2-piece paddle as standard, the split joint allows quick and easy adjustment of length (up to 10cm), angle and orientation whilst in the kayak without the need for tools. Shaft indexed on both sides for maximized grip. Light, powerful and efficient. The high-angle versatile design connects smoothly with the water, right from the catch through to the exit of each stroke. Carbon blades are stiffer and more buoyant than glass blades providing improved performance. The straight carbon shaft is also stiffer providing excellent power transfer, favoured by performance paddlers.The shaft incorporates an oval grip and drip rings as standard.
