ABOUT LAM-LOK™ US Patent Pending

Double down on edge protection with innovative Lam-Lok™ US Patent Pending technology
Lam-Lok™ mechanically bonds the laminated blade layers together with over 33 feet of an aramid thread around the most vulnerable parts of the blades, dramatically extending the life of your paddle
Protects blade edges by resisting delamination, impact and abrasion
Lam-Lok™ is 5-10x more effective at fighting delamination than blades without it

ABOUT THE BLADES

Aerial Minor blade size best suited for small to medium stature paddlers or those looking to maximize efficiency when running rivers
Wide, flattened foam spine simulates performance qualities of both a foil blade and a compression-molded fiberglass blade
Reinforced 100% carbon blade peg insert maximizes blade-to-shaft joint strength while matching the stiffness/flex balance of the entire paddle. Benefit from built-in durability
Smooth transition from blade to shaft. No sharp edges to scrape hands or extra material to add friction in the water

ABOUT THE SHAFT

100% carbon construction optimized for a stiffness/flex balance between that of traditional carbon and fiberglass shafts to ease strain on shoulders
High-tech, spread tow carbon weave increases the mechanical properties of the material (strength, stiffness, impact resistance) while reducing weight
Ergonomic grip shape designed to match the natural shape of a closed hand
Extra-long grip sections allow flexibility for hand placement to fit a greater number of shoulder widths and paddler preferences
Tactile grip coating applied to shaft to help get a better hold–and it won’t destroy paddler calluses, to boot
Designed for hand placement in line with blades
Two-piece breakdown with Versa-Lok™ ferrule

ABOUT THE VERSA-LOK™ FERRULE

Versa-Lok™ allows 5 cm of adjustable length and infinite offset angles. Adjust on the fly to confidently navigate tight passages or run long stretches with your ideal paddle fit
Beefed up Versa-Lok™ to meet the rigors of whitewater paddling. Custom blended nylon ferrule material with very high fiberglass content for strength
Secure, tight locked connection that grips onto the 100% carbon ferrule insert
Ferrule insert extends extra far into the shaft, matching the stiffness/flex balance of the entire paddle
Engineered to feel like paddling a one-piece with the versatility of a two-piece
