Straight shafts
We manufacture our shafts with an exclusive technique. 5 types of straight shafts are fitted on our paddles.
They all have different bending and responsiveness values. To know the type of shaft included with our paddles and the potential options,please refer to each paddle specification.
Vario S.LOCK could easily be adapted on each of our straight shafts.
Bending curves are practically the same, even with the VARIO S LOCK system.
Ergonomic shafts
Our shaft is gripped for a good hold.
The alignment of the ergo area side parts prevent any crank effect from occurring. The interesting feature of this type of shaft is to al ign, during the paddle stroke, the hand with the forearm, as it rings more comfort for the joints area in the wrist as well as more contact during the traction.
The ergonomic shaft enables the paddler to keep the alignment of his arm with his hand. The effect of this is less joint stress on the wrist and much more contact surface with the shaft.It is a comfortable hold and we recommend this type of shaft on TOURING paddles for experienced paddlers who perfectly master their hand placement as the small ergonomic area imposesa very precise positioning.
On "white-water" paddles, which are regularly under 2 meters, the hand positioning is done more out of instinct and this is where the ergo shaft can bring a comfort in use from the very first use.
Vario S.LOCK

Ergo Drive
The removable ERGODRIVE can be positioned very accurately according to the hands position.
The indexer or grip is not in any way compulsory but it brings additional comfort to the hand which controls the crossing, generally, the right hand.
