Paddles

BORÉALDESIGN paddles are crafted with an emphasis on quality and attention to detail. Pressure moulding technology produces a blade with more fibre content than resin, resulting in a paddle that is both lightweight and durable. An exceptionally brilliant finish on both sides of the blade allows water to flow smoothly around blade surfaces.

All of our composite paddle blades feature a “drip groove”, allowing water to drip from the paddle blade instead of running down the shaft. The drip groove, combined with drip rings, allows the paddler to stay dry.

A good paddle makes all the difference.

BORÉALDESIGN paddle blades are asymmetrical in shape for smooth entry into the water. Resistance increases gradually as the blade surface is submerged. The angle of the blade face is shaped to allow water to flow evenly over it, reducing the effect of turbulence. The angle also increases blade surface, providing more power at a feather touch!

	Delphina With its narrow blades that easily slice through water, the Delphina allows the paddler to maintain a dast pace over long distances. This is a dream paddle for practicing lean or carve techniques. Lenght: 210 à 240 cm (82.6 to 94.5 po) Blades surface: 580 cm2 (90 po2)
	Orca The Orca blades feature a large propulsion surface, allowing the paddler to achieve a faster pace within a few strokes. It is the ideal paddle for those seeking more power. Lenght: 210 ton 240 cm (82.6 to 94.5 po) Blades surface: 710 cm2 (110 po2)
	Archipel This interesting alternative to the Delphina and the Orca offers propulsion power, allowing the paddler to maintain a good pace. This all-around paddle is ideal for all types of recreational kayaking. Lenght: 210 to 240 cm (82.6 to 94.5 po) Blades surface: 645 cm2 (100 po2)
	Aloonaq The Aloonaq strokes like a traditionnal Inuit paddle, yet combines the advantages of modern materials. Its smaller blade surface is very useful when paddling into headwinds. Length: 210 to 240 cm (82.6 to 94.5 po) Blades surface: 484 cm2 ( 75 po2)
	Serac The Serac paddle has tough plastic blades. This paddle is ideal as a spare paddle. It is offered with an aluminium shaft or a fiberglass shaft. The Serac is available in 220cm, 230 cm or 240 cm. Lenght: 220, 230 or 240 cm ( 86.5/ 90.5 / 94.5 po) Blades surface: 645 cm2 (100 po2)
	Luna The Luna paddle consists of a mixture of nylon and fibreglass. It is offred with an aluminium 1 piece or 2 piece shaft with integrated oval grips. The 2 piece Luna possess an adjustable joint allowing to adjust its lenght from 220 to 225 cm. Length: 1p 220 cm (86.6 po) 2p 220 to 225 cm (86.5 to 88.6 po) Blades surface: 580 cm2 (90 po2)

Materials
Plastic blades are sturdy and maintenance-free, but are somewhat heavier. Fibreglass paddles are light, strong and perform well. Carbon paddles have stiff and incredibly light blades. However, they require careful handling, owing to the thinness of the blades.

Shaft options
Our paddle shafts are available as one or two pieces. Oval handgrips are shaped to provide comfort while paddling and also provide control of blade angle in wind and waves. Fibreglass shaft are strong and light. Our ergonomic shaped carbon shafts decrease the risk of tendonitis by offering a more natural position for the wrists.
