Features

C4 paddles all feature our unique patented design. They have an oval shape for comfort and strength, a tapered shaft for minimal material. A dihedral ‘spine like feature’ in the back of the blade that keeps the blade tracking straight and minimizes inefficiency in the first 3” of water and turbulence underneath the board. The blade is pitched forward to push water backwards and down and to create a lifting effect with each stroke.

Evaluators said:

“Very stiff, very light. Puts a lot of power in the water. Might be rough on a long paddle”

“Powerful paddle, has a little flutter when I lean on it hard”

Nice paddle, very light, balance feels good”

Summary: Highly rated in all categories–a high performance paddle well suited for more powerful riders.
