Great for technical racing and sprints

The Lima paddle’s shape and angle provide exceptional power and grip, making it perfect for technical racing and sprints.

The Concave

• The concave on the power face is guiding the water throughout the blade controlling the wobbling and increasing the water flow speed.
• The edge defining the concave starts round-shaped at the tip of the blade to separate the water smoothly. It then becomes sharper to dictate the water its path and stabilize the blade.
• All your power is transferred in a straight forward motion as you don’t need to worry about paddle alignment in the water anymore.

10° Blade Angle

• The Lima features a 10° angle at the blade neck, for an efficient power phase catch. Combine this with a unique narrow and flat profile allowing you to pull the blade very close to the rail of the board, giving it a really nice line.

Super Handle

• The new Super Handle changes the way we paddle
• The flat top and wide grip create new powerful leverage of the whole paddle and the blade
• One can steer the paddle on slight angles and remain with full power
• Especially good for side winds and keeping the board on the course you may set.
