Dynel edge

Oh yeah! This is important:

  • for the unwary
  • or generally for tours on stony waters.

My first full-carbon paddle from Werner didn't have an impact-resistant Dynema edge (or Dynel, i.e. a very impact-resistant fiber material that is also used as the core of climbing ropes). After a few groynes on the Rhine, it broke. The second, also by Werner, showed no weaknesses thanks to this embedded edge.

So: Never again without!
