SUP Paddle – Length adjustable – 185-215cm – Dude

Description

Highly durable SUP paddle with a 28mm diameter aluminium anodised shaft that is light and easy to handle – easily adjusted from 185cm – 215cm

Designed as an adjustable SUP paddle , the Dude features a quick adjusting double bolted hand clamp that tightly secures the paddle length when closed. Great for use by keen SUP users and also for hire and activity use.

The firm adjustable clamp and shaft to blade seal mean that when the clamp is fully closed if the paddle is dropped in the water it will float making for easy recovery. The double recessed bolts in the hand clamp make a much firmer grip than lesser paddles with single bolt fixings. The recessed bolts can be adjusted to tighten the clamp hold.

The thick aluminium shaft has a black anodized finish , with clear markings on the adjustable inner telescopic shaft and comfortable T grip handle to the top.

The DUDE range features a large squared profile blade which is specifically designed to enable you to powerfully paddle your SUP whilst balanced with a good quality yet light to handle aluminium shaft. Its a great paddle for inspiring confidence in those new or recent converts to SUP paddling as well as offering good performance to the more experienced SUP user

The blade has been designed to easily master a smooth catch – with little splash on entering the stroke – the blade is designed to ‘scoop’ and hold water when pulling through the stroke – it also minimises lateral blade movement.

The blade and T-grip are moulded in HD Polypropylene

Sizing Guidelines:

SUP Paddling – Hold the paddle parallel to yourself in a standing position with the blade tip on the ground. Lift the clip of the adjustment clamp and slide the telescopic shaft so that the T Grip handle sits comfortably in the palm of your hand with you arm upstretched gently above head height – your hand and palm should comfortable cup the T grip as if you were gripping it to paddle a stroke. Push the clip of the adjustment clamp back into place so it is flush with the clamp

Things to consider when sizing your paddle :

• If you are broad shouldered it can help to select a slightly longer paddle
• If you paddle your SUP in an upright stance without hunching its best to go for a longer paddle length – if you are more stooped in your stance when paddling on your SUP , you may want to consider a slightly shorter paddle
• If you suffer from a shoulder or elbow issue you may find it more comfortable to paddle with a shorter paddle length
