Before you rocket down a swollen Sierra creek, unsheathe the Werner Sho-Gun Paddle for reduced fatigue, a powerful catch, and improved performance in aerated water. The full-sized carbon fiber blades provide seasoned paddlers with the power we need to maneuver and roll in tough whitewater while Dynel edges and Kevlar reinforcement protect them from rocks and abusive river bottoms. Werner's Neutral Bent Shaft aligns our wrists for less fatigue and greater control, letting us run rivers for hours at a time. This is an Ultimate Performance Paddle, designed for river running.
