Handcrafted from remnants of first-quality paddles, the Bending Branches Catalyst ST canoe paddle gives new life to what might have gone to waste. Its comfortable Freestyle palm grip is easy to use.

Features

  • Distinctive patchwork blade design reveals the structurally sound wood scraps in each paddle, displaying the Bending Branches commitment to the reuse of excess materials
  • Freestyle palm grip is comfortable and warm on your hands, and makes it easy to manipulate the canoe
  • Rockgard® protection provides unmatched shock absorption, making the paddle last 6 times longer than one without protection
  • 4 oz. fiberglass wrap over the blade protects against nicks and dents, safeguarding it for years to come
  • Solid, ovalized basswood shaft is durable but not excessively heavy
  • The "Sugar Island" blade shape is designed for smooth flatwater entry and exit—ideal for most canoeists
  • Classic wooden blade is buoyant and efficient, gracefully lifting every stroke from the water with ease
  • Bending Branches will donate $5 from every paddle purchased to the American Rivers nonprofit which works to protect and restore our nation's rivers
  • Handcrafted in Osceola, Wisconsin

Made in USA.
