Aircore Pro - Glass Shaft

Our most aggressive shape, providing instant power which lasts along the length of the stroke. With most of its surface area focussed near the tip of the blade. It's the ideal model for freestyle or surf paddling.

Light, strong, buoyant and incredibly powerful!

These blades are manufactured at a very high pressure to produce an extremely solid hard-wearing edge.

This blade is made from 100% carbon fibre which is pre-impregnated with toughened epoxy resin making it strong, robust and hard-wearing.

Supplied as standard with a ground glass shaft its more flexible but slightly heavier than carbon shaft. If your looking for a stiffer and lighter shaft choose the carbon version.
