Sting Ray blade shape and size are ideal for low-angle, relaxed paddling strokes, sea kayakers and the pack and solo canoe paddler.
Narrower, with slightly less surface area than high-angle blades, the Sting Ray is designed with efficiency and ease in mind. Our best-selling model!
Sting Ray family best suits kayakers who:
- Paddle long-distance trips, including sea kayakers
- Prefer relaxed, general flatwater paddling
- Solo and pack canoe

Manta Ray blade shape and size are ideal for high-angle, aggressive kayakers, packrafters, racers or anyone looking to move lots of water, fast.
Shorter and wider than low-angle paddles, the Manta Ray blades provide more speed and power with a design that catches water, propelling your kayak forward, faster - no matter the load.
Manta Ray Family best suits kayakers who:
- Need to navigate faster or tighter paddling conditions
- Regularly weigh down the kayak with gear, like packrafters
- Like to paddle in surf and other unpredictable conditions
