Select Paddles XBlade Straight Shaft 

At just 652 g, the Select XBlade is one of the lightest carbon kayak paddles available for touring, expedition, and fitness paddling, and that weight saving translates directly into less fatigue and less strain on your joints over long days on the water.

The thin carbon blades are built with a dihedral spine for stiffness and flutter-free tracking, giving you a clean, efficient stroke regardless of pace or conditions. Four blade sizes span from 550 cm² to 720 cm², covering everything from a finesse-focused touring stroke to a high-output fitness paddle. The ovalized full carbon shaft comes in a narrower diameter option, making the XBlade a genuinely comfortable choice for paddlers with smaller hands, female paddlers, or anyone managing arthritic wrists or hands.

An anodized aluminum trigger-lock ferrule provides up to 10 cm of length adjustment and unlimited feathering options, and the XBlade is available in both straight and ergonomic shaft configurations.
