Aerial Minor Carbon Straight

Level up your game with the most innovative paddle in whitewater. Experience comfortable control and unmatched durability with Lam-Lok™ US Patent Pending technology to keep your Aerial Minor Carbon performing at maximum power—for the long-haul.

ABOUT LAM-LOK™ US Patent Pending

• Double down on edge protection with innovative Lam-Lok™ US Patent Pending technology
• Lam-Lok™ mechanically bonds the laminated blade layers together with over 33 feet of an aramid thread around the most vulnerable parts of the blades, dramatically extending the life of your paddle
• Protects blade edges by resisting delamination, impact and abrasion
• Lam-Lok™ is 5-10x more effective at fighting delamination than blades without it

ABOUT THE BLADES

• Aerial Minor blade size best suited for small to medium stature paddlers or those looking to maximize efficiency when running rivers
• Wide, flattened foam spine simulates performance qualities of both a foil blade and a compression-molded carbon blade
• Reinforced 100% carbon blade peg insert maximizes blade-to-shaft joint strength while matching the stiffness/flex balance of the entire paddle. Benefit from built-in durability
• Smooth transition from blade to shaft. No sharp edges to scrape hands or extra material to add friction in the water

ABOUT THE SHAFT

• 100% carbon construction optimized for a stiffness/flex balance between that of traditional carbon and fiberglass shafts to ease strain on shoulders
• High-tech, spread tow carbon weave increases the mechanical properties of the material (strength, stiffness, impact resistance) while reducing weight
• Ergonomic grip shape designed to match the natural shape of a closed hand
• Extra-long grip sections allow flexibility for hand placement to fit a greater number of shoulder widths and paddler preferences
• Tactile grip coating applied to shaft to help get a better hold–and it won’t destroy paddler calluses, to boot
• Designed for hand placement in line with blades
• Fixed length and offset angle
