The 2011 RED Paddle Adjustable Glass Paddle is a new Stand Up Paddle (SUP) paddle.
RPC have taken their one piece glassfibre paddle and added the ability to adjust it from 170-210cm. Ideal if you want to experiment with paddle lengths or if you want friends and family to be able to use the same paddle.
If you want the lightest adjustble paddle then choose this paddle over our alloy adjustable one, the lighter weight always makes paddling easier.
The angle of the paddle blade though the water and the blade's size dictate the power and efficiency of each stroke. All our blades are foiled to minimize drag and maximize power transfer throughout the stroke. A well balanced paddle blade squanders little energy.
The blade's size can be compared to the gears of a bike: the higher the gear or the smaller the blade, the less effort each stroke consumes with less forward motion generated. The lower the gear or the bigger the blade, the more energy will be used and the more forward motion will be activated. For long paddle sessions, lighter people, or those with a high cadence stoke, a smaller blade is recommended. Many people who entered SUP with a surfing background prefer the larger blade sizes that provide the immediate power produced by a few strokes for fast and late drops into waves. Starboard offers seven blade sizes in three constructions to fit your power requirements, comfort needs, and budget.
- An intermediate paddle with the added benefit of quick simple length adjustment
- Dynamic flex to aid the power in your stroke
- A glass fibre shaft with a glass fibre blade
