the VE Paddles Explorer Glass - 2-Piece Carbon Straight Shaft has been built to the same specification of VE's Whitewater paddles. This construction is ideal for those requiring relentless durability where weight is not priority. All VE paddles are made using pre-preg composites and the touring models use the same construction and resin systems as our Whitewater models.
The KajakSport ferrule provides any feather and up to 10 cm of length adjustment. Working instantly both right and left-handed, its simple design provides reliable, hassle-free operation – fully corrosion-free thanks to robust nylon construction.
