This paddle excels for long distance, mellow water trips. The longer lengths allow you to relax more during long days, and the light swing weight is easy on the shoulders. While this paddle is durable, it's not ideal for heavy duty pushing and scooting. The 4-piece break down makes this paddle disappear when the alders show up. If you're looking for a whitewater work horse, check out the Shred model.

• The Manta Ray Fiberglass blade has more surface area than Aqua-Bound's other blade shapes, making it a great choice for big boats and moving water. This blade is made of exclusive Aqua-Bound abXII resin and is reinforced with fiberglass fibers. The Manta Ray Fiberglass paddle has a fiberglass shaft to help reduce fatigue and strain. This paddle provides plenty of strength and is lighter and warmer on the hands than an aluminum shaft.
• The Manta Ray Fiberglass has a snug, trouble-free 3-hole snap-button ferrule (0¡ to 60¡, L and R feathering angles).
• 2.2 pounds (210cm length paddle)
