The Werner Powerhouse 1 Piece Straight Shaft is a versatile mid-range kayak paddle, ideal for white water, kayak surfing, and play-boating. It features a straight shaft with glass blades and offers various configurations, including Powerhouse cranks, Powerhouse carbon, and Powerhouse carbon cranks. For those needing split paddles, a 4-way version is also available.
Designed similarly to the Werner Sherpa but with larger blades, the Powerhouse paddle blades are crafted from continuous weave fiberglass cloth, while the shaft is made from a durable glass fiber and carbon blend. The paddle comes in several lengths and two different feather angles. The prominent hand grip is oval-shaped to help ensure proper paddle orientation during an Eskimo roll.
