Werner Strike Glass - Straight Shaft

Werner's smaller and more forgiving offset whitewater paddle, the Strike is a smaller mid-sized blade giving the user an easier draw through the water for lower resistance and those who are after a paddle to maintain a high cadence or sustained paddling hour after hour.

With an increased offset between blade and shaft the Strike is able to deliver a more vertical paddle stroke through every phase. This also means a greater reach for catching water and a cleaner release for improved drive.

A dihedral shaped asymmetrical blade allows for the easiest paddle stroke, with a smooth pull and minimal pressure onto your body. The pronounced tip gives optimised forward momentum off every stroke. This when coupled with the offset blade has resulted in a paddle which was designed for river racing and will give you reliability to crush every feature.

With a fiberglass blade fixed to a carbon straight shaft the Strike is lightweight and comfortable with Werner's legendary "BOMBER" reliability. The straight shaft is a more simple, traditional feel and with a slightly squashed design sits easily into a closed hand for improved comfort.

Also available in different lengths to suit paddlers of all heights, and in a Straight Shaft, there is a large range of options for the Werner Strike. For those looking for a paddle with the same offset blades but with a cranked shaft, the Werner Strike is available with a neutral bent shaft. Similarly for those looking for a larger blade face for increased power, the Werner Surge is a full sized blade from the same design as the Strike.
