KAYAK AND CANOE PADDLES |
CARBON GRAPHITE FIBRE
Insist on paddles manufactured from this material.
Carbon graphite fibre is stronger and lighter than any other matrial generally used for making paddles.
Many makers use a mix of carbon, kevlar and glass.
The result does not compare in quality to pure carbon fibre.
Why use the other materials? The other materials are easier to use. However, glass fibre will soften over time.
Another reason: carbon fibre is significantly more expensive, so many makers are trying to save on expenses. Carbon fibre is more difficult to shape and cure, and requires special technologies for manufacturing. TURBO paddles is a pioneer and leader in this technology.
We use the best material, regardless of cost, and despite the more complex technology, because we want to offer the best paddle...period.
