Manta Ray Carbon Kayak Paddle for Paddlers

The Aqua-Bound Manta Ray, proudly hand-built in Osceola, Wisconsin, USA, by a team of paddlers and outdoor enthusiasts, is designed for high-angle paddlers, bigger boats, and those seeking more power. The Manta Ray kayak paddle is specifically tailored for high-angle paddlers who desire maximum horsepower and control. The Manta Ray Carbon features a full carbon fiber shaft with a carbon-reinforced blade.

The refined and stronger Manta Ray blade provides a smoother forward stroke with fewer chances for flutter, a stiffer feel, and a quieter entry and exit, allowing paddlers to preserve energy for longer trips. The "oversized" 102.5 sq.in. blade design offers better horsepower and control, making it the ideal size for boat maneuverability, particularly in association with high-angle forward strokes.

The upgraded Carbon and Nylon blade material is stronger, meaning less flex, and thicker, making it more durable and robust in the long term. The 100% woven carbon fiber shaft is the lightest yet strongest material option available today, reducing fatigue and enhancing the paddling experience on long trips. The shaft is ovalized where the hands go for more comfort and control while limiting blisters.

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

Aqua Bound paddles are proudly hand-built in Osceola, Wisconsin, USA, catering to the needs of those who enjoy lake, river, and kayaking, packrafting, racing, and kayak fishing. The Manta Ray paddle specifications include a blade size of 7.5 x 18 in. (19 x 46 cm), a blade surface area of 102.5 sq. in., and a weight of 29.75 oz. (843 g).
