This 3-Piece Adjustable Fiberglass Paddle by Tower is a great value if you're looking for a reliable and durable SUP paddle. Made up of a fiberglass shaft and ABS blade with rubber edging, it is very well-constructed with high end finishes. The adjusting clasp is the same as on our Adjustable Ultralight Tower Carbon Fiber Paddle, so you know you are not compromising on quality. The paddle extends from 65"-85", with a printed marker on the adjusting shaft piece so you are always paddling within the recommended length range.
Fiberglass has the benefit of being a both lightweight and durable material. The fiberglass shaft ensures you won't have weak points throughout the paddle as this frequently occurs in comparably priced paddles on the market. The Tower Paddle Boards logo that decorates the length of the shaft gives the paddle a high end look and feel.
Moving down, the 16" blade is ABS plastic for increased durability and minimal flex. ABS plastic is a superior plastic due to its hardness, toughness and finish. It combines the strength and rigidity of a number of plastics for a dependable and lightweight paddle blade construction. In addition, the blade is reinforced by rubber edging to make it even more durable and protect against paddle hacks to your board while in use.
Overall, the 3-Piece Adjustable Fiberglass Paddle by Tower is total quality and durability at an unbeatable price.
NOTE: Be sure to rinse paddle with freshwater after each use. Metal parts of paddle will rust if not rinsed thoroughly.
This paddle does NOT float. However, we do have a great trick to ensure floatation. Cut a pool noodle and insert the pieces inside the paddle OR wrap pieces around the outside of the paddle.
