The Concave

• The concave on the power face is guiding the water throughout the blade controlling the wobbling and increasing the water flow speed.
• The edge defining the concave starts round-shaped at the tip of the blade to separate the water smoothly. It then becomes sharper to dictate the water its path and stabilize the blade.
• All your power is transferred in a straight forward motion as you don’t need to worry about paddle alignment in the water anymore.

Blade Angle

• The lima has a unique narrow and flat profile allowing you to pull the blade very close to the rail of the board, giving it a really nice line. Combine to a 10° angle, the power phase is very efficient making all your energy going in a straight forward motion.

Super Handle

• The new Super Handle changes the way we paddle
• The flat top and wide grip create new powerful leverage of the whole paddle and the blade
• One can steer the paddle on slight angles and remain with full power
• Especially good for side winds and keeping the board on the course you may set.

The Trash Picker – Comes with every paddle
Use the trash picker as a helpful tool to pick up plastic and other trash while paddling. It’s made from recycled plastic and comes with every paddle. Store the trash in a bag or pocket it until you reach the shore.
