Looking for a lightweight and high-performance kayak paddle for your next adventure? Look no further than the Aqua Bound Stingray! This popular paddle is designed to provide the perfect balance of weight and performance, with a carbon shaft and fiberglass reinforced nylon blades that weigh in at just 850g.
The Stingray's redesigned blade shape offers a smoother forward stroke with less chance of flutter, as well as a stiffer feel and quieter entry and exit. The upgraded fiberglass + nylon material is stronger and more durable than ever before, ensuring that your paddle will last for years to come.
With a 92.5 sq. inch blade, the Stingray is designed for maximum efficiency, providing enough torque to maneuver your kayak without causing fatigue. The traditional "mid-sized" or slender blade design is ideal for low-angle paddlers, with a forward stroke that is horizontal and relaxed in nature.
The Stingray's carefully engineered blade shape slices into and out of the water, minimizing fatigue due to wind resistance. The sharp dihedral provides a silky-smooth forward stroke with zero tolerance for fluttering, preserving your energy for longer paddling trips.
The Stingray's 100% carbon shaft is the lightest material available, making paddling less fatiguing and more enjoyable on longer trips. The shaft is ovalized where the hands go for more comfort and control, and to limit the chances for blisters.
The Stingray also features the Posi-Lok ferrule, which is known for its secure fit, simplicity, and longevity. Paddlers can quickly and intuitively adjust the blade offset in 15-degree increments depending on wind and other paddling conditions. The carbon ferrule insert is light, tight, and designed to last for the long haul.
Available in two color options, Sunset Red and white, the Aqua Bound Stingray is proudly hand-built in Osceola, Wisconsin, USA, by a team of paddlers and outdoor enthusiasts.
