Description

Maneuver your craft across the lake or down the river with fresh confidence when you dip the Werner Algonquin canoe paddle into the water.

Features
  • Lightweight, handcrafted carbon construction delivers reliable strength with a feel and performance you'll love
  • 10° shaft-to-blade offset keeps the blade more vertical through the power phase to benefit your forward paddling, but still allows smooth turns and control strokes
  • With a buoyant carbon blade design blade, each stroke pops quietly from the water for effortless forward strokes and confident bracing
  • Long, rectangular, slender design is easy on your body with a gentle catch that lets you maintain a higher paddling cadence
  • Super thin edge guard creates a knifelike feel in and out of the water; it's also impact- and abrasion-resistant for canoe touring
  • Dihedral ridge down the middle of the power face allows for smooth and stable forward paddling
  • Optimized flex and strength enhance comfort without sacrificing power or confidence
  • Smooth back face is quiet and makes it easy to link your turn strokes
  • Comfortable palm grip allows your fingers to relax in their natural position instead of splaying out
