Symmetrical Canoe Blade Shape

• Our Recreational Canoe paddles have a symmetrical shape with the same design features on both the front and back, and soft edges for exceptional versatility.

Shaft & T Grip

• The shaft is durable carbon construction which is light weight
• An oval index for added control
• An enhanced ABS T-grip is designed for maximum control and greater durability

Correct Length

• Sit upright in a chair.
• Grab the paddle at the throat. (Where the blade transitions to the shaft.)
• Now turn the paddle upside down and set the grip between your legs. You should be looking ahead at your index finger.
• Add length for deeper canoes or reduce length for more shallow boats and decked canoes.
• NOTE: 56"+ 58" lengths fit 80% of all whitewater canoeists.
• Use this chart as a starting point and contact BHP for more information if needed.
