This is my absolute favorite #1 go-to paddle: huge/durable blade, very light, rock solid/textured! shaft, half the $$$ of most other carbon paddles, and really nice customer service folks. Thanks Aqua~Bound !

I started learning whitewater kayaking in the pool last Jan. After using a lower end 'rental' paddle for class, I decided I need to get the best paddle I could for the cheapest price. I researched what was out there and couldn't believe that the Shred Carbon was under $200 and that similar paddles could be over $400! Just didn't seem wise to spend $400 on something that might end up floating away down the river in my first season. SO...I went with the Shread. I've used it all summer as I worked my way up the Lehigh River and finally made it to Class 3. I also used it on the Mongaup River in NY. I see no reason to waste money paying for the 'name' of the expensive paddles. My Aquabound is performing well and is lightweight, sturdy, etc. I've slammed it into quite afew rocks already and it's holding up well. I highly recommend this paddle to anyone not looking to spend a fortune and who wants a good quality, lightweight paddle that they can count on to take them to the next level. Thanks, Aquabound!
