Carbon composite kayak and stand up paddleboard paddles. Engineers lay unidirectional carbon fiber over custom aluminum molds, vacuum bag the assemblies, and cure them in a low pressure oven. After cure, each blade is hand shaped with diamond grit tools to achieve the company’s signature tear drop profile and is torque tested on a digital gauge to ±0.1 Nm accuracy.

Their production line also includes a resin lab where technicians formulate proprietary epoxy blends for optimal flex and impact resistance. Paddle shafts—made from split tapered carbon or hybrid fiberglass cores—are cut to length on automated saws, then manually assembled with O-ring ferrules to ensure watertight seals. Every paddle passes through a water flow tank to measure thrust curves before being serialized and shipped globally.
