Level up your game with the most innovative paddle in whitewater. Command the river with an ergonomic crank shaft and experience unmatched durability with Lam-Lok™ US Patent Pending technology to keep your Aerial Minor Carbon performing at maximum power—for the long-haul.
ABOUT LAM-LOK™ US Patent Pending
- Double down on edge protection with innovative Lam-Lok™ US Patent Pending technology
- Lam-Lok™ mechanically bonds the laminated blade layers together with over 33 feet of an aramid thread around the most vulnerable parts of the blades, dramatically extending the life of your paddle
- Protects blade edges by resisting delamination, impact and abrasion
- Lam-Lok™ is 5-10x more effective at fighting delamination than blades without it
ABOUT THE BLADES
- Aerial Minor blade size best suited for small to medium stature paddlers or those looking to maximize efficiency when running rivers
- Wide, flattened foam spine simulates performance qualities of both a foil blade and a compression-molded carbon blade
- Reinforced 100% carbon blade peg insert maximizes blade-to-shaft joint strength while matching the stiffness/flex balance of the entire paddle. Benefit from built-in durability
- Smooth transition from blade to shaft. No sharp edges to scrape hands or extra material to add friction in the water
ABOUT THE SHAFT
- Crank shaft designed for maximum efficiency, control and comfort (with bends in all the right places)
- 100% carbon construction optimized for a stiffness/flex balance between that of traditional carbon and fiberglass shafts to ease strain on shoulders
- High-tech, spread tow carbon weave increases the mechanical properties of the material (strength, stiffness, impact resistance) while reducing weight
- Ergonomic grip shape designed to match the natural shape of a closed hand
- Extra-long grip sections allow flexibility for hand placement to fit a greater number of shoulder widths and paddler preferences
- Tactile grip coating applied to shaft to help get a better hold–and it won’t destroy paddler calluses, to boot
- Designed for hand placement in line with blades
- Fixed length and offset angle
- Blade Material: Carbon Fiber with Aramid Thread
- Shaft Material: Carbon Fiber
- Blade Size: 44 cm x 20 cm (645 sq. cm)
- Weight: 1pc: 39.1 oz. (1105 g)
- Offset Angles: Fixed: 15° increments (L & R)
