 Engineered for Performance: The Precision Paddle Joint
The paddle's design features an engineered joint that elevates performance and durability. We use a double push-button clip to provide a secure, rotation-free lock that eliminates unwanted play and clicking. This two-button system ensures a consistent feel and unmatched stability during every stroke.
Our buttons are strategically sized at 6mm, a dimension carefully chosen to be less than one-third of the inner tube's diameter. This minimizes stress on the carbon fiber, preventing structural fatigue and allowing the paddle to flex naturally. The buttons themselves are hollow, a deliberate choice that allows them to deform slightly with the tube's cross-sectional change ("breathing") as you load it with potential energy. This ensures a consistent, predictable spring-like response.
