Aqua Bound Aerial Major Fiberglass Straight Shaft
The new rebel of whitewater is here with beefed up blades and daring durability for the most hardcore of runs and conditions. Expect more from fiberglass blades and experience unmatched longevity with Lam-Lok™ US Patent Pending technology to keep your Aerial Major Fiberglass 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 Major blade size best suited for paddlers who are larger-statured, in excellent paddling shape or require extra surface area to enact extremely responsive, aggressive maneuvers
- Wide, flattened foam spine simulates performance qualities of both a foil blade and a compression-molded 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
