I own a Werner Camano and Aquabound Eagle Ray. The Camano is my favorite. I do a lot surf launches and I've found that if sand get inside the Aquabound ferrule its a pain to take apart.

The Aquabound is gathering dust in my garage now.

I know this is an older thread but i had to tag onto it.

I get the pro deal on both Aquabound and Bending Branches, i believe they are owned by the same company. I've been looking at the Manta Ray Carbon(AB) and the Angler Ace(BB). Looking at the specs they are very similar in size and weight. The Ace has a slightly smaller blade surface and is slightly heavier. The prices are very similar and both say they are USA made. Am i going to notice any difference in the two paddles? Anybody tried both that could point out any reason to pick one over the other? Thanks.
