Level up your game with the most innovative paddle in whitewater. Command the river with an ergonomic crank shaft and experience unmatched durability with Lam-Lok™ US Patent Pending technology to keep your Aerial Minor Carbon performing at maximum power—for the long-haul.

ABOUT LAM-LOK™ US Patent Pending

Double down on edge protection with innovative Lam-Lok™ US Patent Pending technology
Lam-Lok™ mechanically bonds the laminated blade layers together with over 33 feet of an aramid thread around the most vulnerable parts of the blades, dramatically extending the life of your paddle
Protects blade edges by resisting delamination, impact and abrasion
Lam-Lok™ is 5-10x more effective at fighting delamination than blades without it

ABOUT THE BLADES

Aerial Minor blade size best suited for small to medium stature paddlers or those looking to maximize efficiency when running rivers
Wide, flattened foam spine simulates performance qualities of both a foil blade and a compression-molded carbon blade
Reinforced 100% carbon blade peg insert maximizes blade-to-shaft joint strength while matching the stiffness/flex balance of the entire paddle. Benefit from built-in durability
Smooth transition from blade to shaft. No sharp edges to scrape hands or extra material to add friction in the water

ABOUT THE SHAFT

Crank shaft designed for maximum efficiency, control and comfort (with bends in all the right places)
100% carbon construction optimized for a stiffness/flex balance between that of traditional carbon and fiberglass shafts to ease strain on shoulders
High-tech, spread tow carbon weave increases the mechanical properties of the material (strength, stiffness, impact resistance) while reducing weight
Ergonomic grip shape designed to match the natural shape of a closed hand
Extra-long grip sections allow flexibility for hand placement to fit a greater number of shoulder widths and paddler preferences
Tactile grip coating applied to shaft to help get a better hold–and it won’t destroy paddler calluses, to boot
Designed for hand placement in line with blades
Fixed length and offset angle
