This paddle is exactly the same as the two piece paddle except for an extra fitting above the blade which allows the blade to pop off. This is a popular option for people with inflatable SUPs who want to make the paddle smaller to fit into the iSUP bag.
Although still a very light weight paddle, the extra fitting does make the paddle slightly heavier. Water can get into the shaft whilst paddling through the blade adjustable fitting – we recommend popping off the blade, emptying and rinsing with fresh water after every use.
