    The Skagit paddle from Werner offers beginning and recreational paddlers excellent value and performance.

    • Carbon and fiberglass shaft feels comfortable to the touch; durable construction stands up to long hours on the water
    • Adjustable Ferrule System allows elegant adjustment of feathering angle from 0° - 75° right or left in 15° increments
    • Improved ferrule design incorporates internal printing of offset degrees and a low-profile button release that makes paddle feel like 1 piece
    • Injection-molded blades are constructed with fiberglass-reinforced nylon, offering a lighter swing weight than plastic blades
    • Asymmetrical blade shape helps reduce torque, allowing paddle to pull smoothly through the water and reducing the need to grip tightly
    • Drip rings help keep hands and lap dry
    • Design is optimized for low-angle paddling style
    • 2-piece design breaks down quickly and eases transport and storage

    Made in USA.

            Comments about Werner Skagit Paddle:

            So glad I picked this one! Very comfortable with good power. I have arthritis and would get fatigued and sore with my old paddle, but not with this one. Was able to paddle farther and longer with a lot less fatigue (even in a stiff headwind). Nice control, too. Would highly recommend this to anyone.

                Bought this paddle for day trips/touring and it so far seems perfect for it. As I am used to all-carbon paddles it seems a little heavy, but not more than expected. The angle adjustment/shaft lock works perfect, and makes it feel like a one-piece paddle. [...]

                    Maybe I shouldn't even write a review as I am a total novice kayaker. However, I can say that this paddle is much lighter than I expected. It seems to fit pretty well too as I used the werner fit guide. I'm very happy, but don't have much to say about durability. Sight unseen, I wouldn't hesitate to buy this paddle. It's not going back, that's for sure.

                        Great Paddle, getting up to speed is a little slower due to the longer thinner blade design, but makes paddling all day much easier.

                        Service and delivery comments:

                        Paddle was packed very securely and arrived in less time than was stated during the ordering process.
