Why We Like The Aqua Bound Manta Ray Carbon Versa-Lok 2-Piece Paddle

The Aqua Bound Manta Ray Carbon Versa-Lok Paddle is a versatile and high-performance paddle that we love. Its unique Versa-Lok clamping system allows us to easily adjust the length by up to 15cm and customize the feathering to suit our preferences and paddling conditions.

When it comes to power, the Manta Ray doesn't disappoint. It features an oversized blade that provides efficient and flutter-free strokes, making it perfect for powerful paddling and maneuverability. Despite its power, the paddle remains lightweight due to its carbon shaft and fiberglass-reinforced nylon blades.

This paddle is proudly made in the USA and is a fantastic choice for faster recreational kayaks and touring boats. Its lightweight design, adjustability, and performance make it a reliable companion for longer trips.
