This level of paddle blade construction can take the abuse of Adventure Centers and with a useful temperature range of between – 10 deg. and + 40 deg. the longevity of the paddle is guaranteed.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eCarbon composite shafts\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eAt AINSWORTH, we incorporate 45-degree Bi Axial carbon fibers into our shafts, which increases their ultimate tensile strength (UTS). This is in contrast to other brands that only use fibers at 0\/90 degrees, resulting in a weak point that may break. Moreover, the Bi Axial shaft induces an inherent spring into the structure, significantly enhancing the stroke's performance. Our shaft's exceptional strength, combined with a 10-degree kick back of the dihedral blade, not only advances the \"catch\" but also forces quicker drain at the end of the stroke.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eFiberglass Shafts\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e In addition to our carbon fiber shafts, AINSWORTH also provides glass fiber shafts that are more gentle on sensitive or achy limbs. Glass fiber has 3-5 times the elongation at break compared to carbon fiber, making the glass shaft more flexible, while still demonstrating toughness suitable for challenging conditions in adventure centers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eAdjustable shafts\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eAt AINSWORTH, we provide adjustable-length shafts in both glass and carbon constructions. While they may not be as rigid as fixed-length shafts, they do offer the flexibility to adjust the length depending on the user's preference or the paddling style. A shorter length allows for a higher stroke rate, while a longer length offers a more relaxed cruising mode.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e When selecting the appropriate paddle length, it is crucial to consider your height and the type of stand-up paddleboarding you plan to do. At AINSWORTH, we have developed a paddle guide to assist you in this process. However, it is important to note that personal preference is also a significant factor in choosing the perfect paddle length.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eBlade Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eHaving the correct paddling technique is crucial as an incorrect technique can negatively affect the blade's efficiency. At Ainsworth, we incorporate the dihedral shape into our SUP blades to assist in controlling water flow around the blade. This design also allows for sustained power output. Our blades feature power curves (scoops) on either side of the blade's center, which enables better control and greater water pressure (=power) while reducing the chances of blade flutter, even when not fully immersed in the water. Our latest carbon blade designs are teardrop-shaped and come in three sizes: Small (540cm² = 84in²), Medium (585cm² = 91in²), and Large (640cm² = 99in²).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eWarranty\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eAt Ainsworth, we take pride in producing the strongest, lightest, and most durable paddles available in the market. We are highly confident in the performance of our paddles, and therefore we offer a one-year warranty to our customers. The warranty starts from the date of purchase and is limited to the original purchaser. It covers any defects in materials and workmanship under normal use. However, it is important to note that the warranty does not cover edge wear. Any damages resulting from abuse, negligence, or normal wear and tear will be repaired or replaced for a reasonable charge. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-specifications\"\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 class=\"product-page-heading cf\"\u003e Technical Specifications \u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\n\u003ctr class=\"ekmProductAttributeWrapper\" id=\"_EKM_PRODUCTATRRIBUTE_1_BRAND_WRAPPER\"\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e \u003cspan class=\"ekmProductAttributeName\"\u003eFire\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e \u003cspan id=\"_EKM_PRODUCTBRAND\"\u003eAinsworth Paddles\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr class=\"ekmProductAttributeWrapper\" id=\"_EKM_PRODUCTATRRIBUTE_1_CONDITION_WRAPPER\"\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e \u003cspan class=\"ekmProductAttributeName\"\u003eCondition\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e \u003cspan id=\"_EKM_PRODUCTCONDITION\"\u003eNew\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\u003ctr class=\"ekmProductAttributeWrapper\" id=\"_EKM_PRODUCTATRRIBUTE_1_PRODUCTCODE_WRAPPER\"\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e \u003cspan class=\"ekmProductAttributeName\"\u003eProduct Code\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\u003ctd\u003e \u003cspan id=\"_EKM_PRODUCTCODE\"\u003eS210-1GS70T\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/td\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"ainsworth","offers":[{"title":"S-540 cm2","offer_id":47782124028245,"sku":null,"price":1999.0,"currency_code":"SEK","in_stock":false},{"title":"M-585 cm2","offer_id":47782124061013,"sku":null,"price":1999.0,"currency_code":"SEK","in_stock":true},{"title":"L-640 cm2","offer_id":47782124093781,"sku":null,"price":1999.0,"currency_code":"SEK","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0054\/0472\/1187\/files\/Screenshot2024-01-20at10-30-32SUP_PolyCarb_Large_9072a132-8754-4432-8025-2856aff8d5d1.png?v=1705747665","url":"https:\/\/kitekalle.shop\/en\/products\/ainsworth-poly-carb-performance-range-glass-shaft-3-piece","provider":"KITEKALLE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
