The Gunflint is an all-purpose paddle suited for nearly any paddling trip. Weighing only 23oz, the 19” x 8.5” blade gives you abundant power in the water, perfect for fighting a strong wind or a current. The all-hardwood construction is highly durable and the blade is fully fiberglass-reinforced with an epoxy rock guard, meaning this paddle can handle any wilderness trip you throw at it. The squared off tip gives you great purchase even in shallow water.
Unvarnished grips. An oiled grip feels warmer and smoother in the hands and is less prone to cause blistering. On the bent shaft paddles is an asymmetrical palm grip; its forward lean helps ensure a secure grip while the soft curves still allow for comfortable rotation in the hand, easing the rotation needed for corrective strokes in the water. The straight shaft grip is symmetrical, and the soft curves make rotation for corrective and steering strokes effortless.
