This paddle has everything the serious wilderness tripper wants: a 21 laminate hardwood shaft and wider hardwood blade deliver an efficient power stroke. The entire blade is protected by composite reinforced fiberglass cloth, making it the toughest wood paddle on the market.  Features new Wrap Around Rockgard protection from tip to 6" up the shaft. I've used this paddle extremely hard over the past 4 years, and it's become my absolute favorite. The new Ultimate T-Grip provides maximum control and long distance comfort. Specs: Blade 20" long, 8" wide: weight 28 oz.
