A lot of you using Werner paddle, which for me is too expensive if i want a carbon paddle, (maybe some people say, do you really a carbon paddle? well, if only $50 different with hybrid and full carbon, i rather pay additional $50).
The paddle is $175, which is the most inexpensive carbon paddle out there, Werner carbon paddle at least $300+.... 
I am going to try it out this weekend, but just wondering is anyone here using this paddle? and any comment? |
The Manta Ray Carbon is a nice paddle for its price. It however does not compare to a "true" Werner carbon. This paddle is more like what you find in a Tybee CF IM with Blow blades and a Carbon reinforced shaft. It is a different construction than say an Ikelos or Coryvrecken for sure.
At any rate they are nice for the price and we do sell a good number of them. I enjoy dealing with their customer service folks, always some of the nicest people we deal with.
