| Backcountry series paddles are designed for rugged durability and strength, without adding unnecessary weight. The Oxbow Lake Edition is designed with a slightly elliptical shaft and an extremely hard maple blade for unbreakable quality. The Oxbow Lake's longer blade allows the paddler to plunge deep into the water for greater power, while the narrow blade width allows for ease in slicing ability. The Oxbow Lake Edition is great for all paddling , but is our best for bow paddling (tandem). Asymetrical grip for ultimate palm comfort.
Elliptical shaft and asymetrical grip are sheathed in premium dark walnut hardwood. Core of the paddle constructed from lightweight, clear cedar. Blade made from maple hardwood for long lasting durability.
All paddles are priced as "varnish only" finish. Varnish only includes four layers of ultra tough marine varnish (see About Our Finish) Or choose to add a fiberglass blade wrap to any paddle for $29.95. All fiberglassed paddles are coated three times with ultra UV weather protecting marine varnish. |
