Our 100% carbon fibre paddles are beautifully constructed with a a range of precision engineered blade shapes, sizes and dihedral to suit any paddlers needs. Our teardrop blades, similar to the QB Kahana have a smooth drawn out dihedral spine, and reinforced protective edge. The v83 race blade has a double scooped V dihedral, and the V90 has a strong single spine dihedral. The graphics are sub-laminated meaning that your paddle will look great year after year. Our 3k coax carbon shafts are tested to achieve maximum standards of strength to weight ratio, and designed to deliver a regular and reliable flex.
This paddle is designed to reduce biomechanical stress and fatigue. These might not be the absolute lightest paddle for their size (if you’re a weight obsessive, you can find paddles about 80g lighter at a significantly higher price). But we don’t believe weight is everything. Our combination of blade and shaft, and the carefully balanced weight distribution evenly distributes the energy from your body to the blade, and feels alive in all four phases of the stroke. allowing for a smoother transition without compromising performance or sacrificing your body to stress and fatigue.
Comes with a free high quality padded paddlebag worth £25.
Look far and wide, and you will still not find a paddle of this quality at this price.

I’ve had this paddle for about 6 months now. It’s my “go to” paddle and I use it in preference to a somewhat more expensive carbon composite from a big brand. It’s fantast value and a great choice for a first carbon paddle. The blade is low profile which gives very predictable handling in the water when steering or using compound strokes – a pleasure to use. Lacking much in the way of stabilising features compared to my composite I found it slightly inclined to flutter at the start of the power phase when working hard but over time my stroke has improved and adapted and now it’s absolutely fine. It’s robust and well made which is reassuring when paddling offshore. The bag (which came free) is really nice and Andy cut and glued the handle to my exact measured length.

I was attracted by the very competitive price for this type of product having made comparisons elsewhere. I am very pleased with the paddle which is exactly what I was looking for in a carbon paddle : excellent quality and well thought out design- and of course is top value-for- money especially as comes complete with a paddle bag. The paddle itself one of the lightest I have used and have found it is very precise and predictable in the power phase of the stroke ..Am sure am catching more waves now ! The customer service was superb throughout with a nice personal touch and i was kept posted at each stage of the transaction until delivery which was made well within quoted service time. All-in -all a great “shopping experience” and totally recommend McConks!!

Ordered one piece carbon paddle on Friday (asking to be cut and handle fitted) Arrived Saturday afternoon. Yeap Saturday afternoon, under 24 hrs to be delivered at no fee. Paddle looks absolutely fantastic, well made and weighs nothing. Cant wait to use it. Undeliverable service, many thanks to the team at McConks.
