The Lettmann Ergonom Pro WW LCS 70 Extreme is one of the best whitewater paddles on the market. The extreme version of the Ergonom is based on the paddle blade shape that has long been tried and tested in slalom sports. Many additional layers of carbon, glass fiber and aramid ensure better stability compared to slalom paddles. Even with frequent stone contact, the paddle is well protected thanks to the surrounding aramid edge. Thanks to the foam core, the paddle has high flexural rigidity. The steering maneuvers are even more effective with this paddle and the propulsion will immediately convince you of this paddle.
The high-performance paddle, developed in close cooperation with biomechanists in sports medicine, relieves joints, ligaments, tendons and muscles. The paddle blade builds up hydrodynamic lift at every angle of use, giving the rider power and control with every small paddle stroke. The Ergo shaft also allows for a forward position of the paddle blades. So there is even more pull and range on the blade. However, the wrists do not have to be uncomfortably overstretched laterally.
The Ergonom Pro is also available as a two-piece version with the high-quality Vario division (extendable up to 10 cm).

The ergonomic philosophy
Because the paddle should adapt to the driver and not the other way around, Klaus and Jochen Lettmann invented the ergonomic paddle. The many advantages of an ergonomic paddle at a glance:
- Minimal wrist movement with a paddle blade rotation of 55 °
- No cramping of the muscles and tendons, because both hands easily and loosely grasp the angled ergonomic shaft
- Maximum power transmission and full adaptation to the biomechanics of the wrist, arm and shoulder joints
- More propulsion with less effort, as the point of use of the paddle blade is approx. 3 cm in front of the pulling hand
- Clean immersion with less paddle slip for direct propulsion
- Automatic stabilization of the paddle blades through the upstream pressure point of the pulling hand, thereby also flutter-free pulling through of the paddle blade and reduced holding forces
- Better handling with technical paddle strokes such as bow or pull stroke, as the paddle can be opened wider.
