AQUA BOUND Stingray Carbon Black Paddle

The Sting Ray kayak paddle, proudly hand-built in Osceola, Wisconsin, USA, by a team of paddlers and outdoor enthusiasts, is designed for low-angle paddlers, wide boats, and those seeking maximum efficiency for long journeys. The Sting Ray Carbon model pairs carbon-reinforced blades with a full carbon fiber shaft, catering to paddlers who enjoy a more relaxed or horizontal forward stroke style.

The carefully engineered blade shape of the Sting Ray slices through the water, providing a silky-smooth, low-flutter forward stroke. The smaller blade size (91 sq. in) helps to limit fatigue caused by wind resistance. The upgraded carbon and nylon blade material is stronger, meaning less flex, and thicker, making it more durable and robust in the long run.

The 100% woven carbon fiber shaft is the lightest yet strongest material option available today. Paddling with a light and strong shaft is less fatiguing and more enjoyable on long trips. The shaft is ovalized where the hands go for more comfort and control, reducing the risk of blisters.

The patented Posi-Lok ferrule is the gold standard in paddle sports today, known for its secure fit, simplicity, and longevity. Paddlers can quickly and intuitively adjust the blade offset in 15-degree increments, depending on wind and other paddling conditions.

Aqua Bound paddles are designed for those who enjoy a variety of water activities, including lake, river, and kayaking, packrafting, racing, and kayak fishing. The Sting Ray kayak paddle is a testament to the company's commitment to quality and innovation, with its specifications showcasing its impressive performance: Blade Size: 6.5 x 18 in. (16.5 x 46 cm), Blade Surface Area: 92.5 sq. in., Weight: 28.75 oz. (815 g).

In summary, the Sting Ray kayak paddle is a meticulously engineered and crafted tool that caters to the needs of low-angle paddlers, wide boat enthusiasts, and those seeking maximum efficiency for long-distance journeys. Its carefully designed blade shape, lightweight yet strong carbon fiber shaft, and the versatile Posi-Lok ferrule make it a popular choice among paddlers who value performance, comfort, and durability.
