POWER SCOOP TECHNOLOGY (PST)

The Hydro SprintX features a single shallow scoop design with dihedral shaped edges. This design is optimized for high cadence and high-power output, and it delivers forward thrust in a smooth and controlled manner. PST is designed to work in harmony with Advanced Flow Technology (AFT).

ADVANCED FLOW TECHNOLOGY (AFT)

The proprietary Advanced Flow Technology (AFT) is designed to significantly increase paddle efficiency. By reducing fluid turbulence around the blade, unwanted lateral blade movements are eliminated. This increased efficiency leads to a smoother paddle stroke, reduced fatigue, and faster speeds. AFT is designed to work in harmony with our Power Scoop Technology (PST).

TOUR CARBON SHAFT

Engineered with a double tapered round-oval-round design, the Tour Carbon shaft maximizes stiffness in the lower section, delivering stability and optimizing power transfer to the blade. The upper section has a thinner and more flexible round profile, minimizing fatigue. The oval-shaped middle-grip area has a natural carbon-textured matte finish ensuring a directional feel with a secure and relaxed grip. Constructed with 30T pre-preg carbon laminates for reduced weight and increased paddling power. With a range of options there’s a perfect fit for every enthusiast across the entire spectrum of paddlers.

POWERGRIP HANDLE

The PowerGrip has been optimized for maximum power, increased efficiency, and long-lasting comfort while paddling hard. Developed in collaboration with world champion Arthur Arutkin and Maui waterman Bernd Roediger, the wider and flatter back creates a secure feel that remains comfortable during longer races and workouts. Like all our handles, the PowerGrip is hollow to help eliminate any excess weight.

DESIGNED FOR SHORT DISTANCE RACING

The Hydro SprintX was designed to meet the specific demands of short distance SUP racing; it has become the paddle of choice for many competitive SUP racers worldwide. We set out to create the best paddle for short distance racing, a specific paddle for sprinting and short distance which gives athletes an (unfair) advantage – the Hydro SprintX is that paddle. When not in the office or developing equipment, we love to train hard and challenge our own physical limits, we’re paddlers too and that inspires what we do.

SHALLOW 7.5° BLADE ANGLE

The Hydro SprintX has a shallow 7.5° blade angle which promotes a high cadence and delivers instant power. It is ideally suited to short distance, technical and sprint racing.

30T CARBON CONSTRUCTION

The 30T carbon construction reduces weight and increases responsiveness of the paddle. This enables us to optimize the internal layers and build an even more durable paddle.
