Werner Odachi white water paddle

480,00 โ‚ฌ

This absolute racing monster from Werner is optimized for maximum propulsion. Extremely large, upstream blades allow a powerful paddle pull. The Dynel edge protects the carbon blades from abrasion. Due to the rigidity of the carbon shaft, you transfer your complete pull into the water.

Delivery time: 5-7 days

The Werner Odachi is a whitewater paddle with blades made of pure carbon. The blade is made of carbon with a central foam core rib. This stiffens the blade considerably and allows for a smooth, flutter-free stroke โ€“ even with a strong paddling arm. The two sides of the leaf to the right and left of the foam rib are oriented in a V shape. With this technology from aircraft construction, the blade stabilizes itself along the axis of the shaft. Compared to the Werner Surge, the blade is longer and wider. The symmetrical blade shape is based on canoe racing and is therefore optimized for the forward stroke. The upstream blade allows even more traction to be applied to the blade. A Dynelยฎ edge protects the blades from abrasion when used in rocky white water.

The carbon shaft ensures high rigidity and low weight. As an adaptation to the open hand, Werner does not build the grip areas in an oval shape as usual, but instead in a teardrop shape.

Particularly popular with many paddlers: The shaft of the Werner Odachi is also available with a narrow diameter.

The Werner Odachi is also available with an Ergo stock.

Since 1965 Werner has been building paddles for all applications in Washington on the US West Coast. The paddles are still manufactured and developed by hand. In the past decades, Werner Paddles has been able to score with the development of asymmetrically shaped paddle blades, a neutral ergo shaft, the Smart-View paddle division and dihedral paddle blades. The Powerhouse/Serpa and Surge/Strike series are probably the most popular laminate paddles worldwide. In production, Werner Paddles is committed to material and energy-efficient processes. Werner Paddles supports organizations protecting rivers, drinking water and coastal areas in the USA.
