Sting Ray Hybrid 2-Piece Versa-Lok Kayak Paddle

One of the most trusted blade shapes in flatwater kayaking, the Aqua-Bound Sting Ray Hybrid pairs proven low-angle performance with a full carbon shaft and a premium adjustable ferrule.

The abXII fiberglass reinforced nylon blades are built for efficiency on long days, with a slender 92.5 sq. in. profile that suits the relaxed, horizontal stroke style most recreational and touring paddlers use on Canadian lakes and rivers. The sharp dihedral through the blade face eliminates flutter and keeps each stroke quiet and clean, while the thicker, stiffer construction reduces flex for better power transfer without sacrificing the forgiveness that makes a paddle comfortable over hours of use.

The 100% carbon ovalized shaft keeps the overall weight to just 31 oz. and reduces hand fatigue on extended paddles. The Versa-Lok ferrule system adds 15 cm of length adjustability and infinite feather angle options, backed by a decade of on-water use and structural testing. The carbon ferrule insert is noticeably more durable and precise than plastic or fibreglass alternatives. Hand-built in Osceola, Wisconsin, by a team that paddles what they produce.
