Viper Vaa Bamboo Paddles

100% handmade in Raiatea. Built with a bamboo shaft and a 50% bamboo, 50% carbon fiber, this paddle brings flexibility to a whole new level, since it’s got great flex on both the shaft and its blade. Although still very light, it is 50g heavier on the blade than its Hybrid counterpart. The extra weight brings some inertia to your stroke and makes it very comfortable. A great compromise for all long distance races. Make it 100% unique! Available in 9 degree square blade, with a pronounced “scoop effect”, for more power upon water entry, ideal for V6 paddling and training sessions. This model is ideal for a long and powerful pulling stroke (the famous Tahitian “Huti” stroke). Also available in a 10 degree round blade, which offers more subtle water entry when a greater range of paces is needed. Ideal for V1 long distance. This model is ideal for the paddler who frequently varies his or her pace. Water exit is also optimised.
