Barakuda
The Barakuda is a great choice for Sea Surfing, but can be used for Freestyle. Originally from our slalom shapes, it has been designed with whitewater use in mind. The combination makes this an excellent paddle in the surf.

This can also be a benefit to Freestyle paddlers, offering a swift stroke performance.

Bombora
Bombora was designed based on our Barakuda blades. The Barakuda is a surf/freestyle paddle, but developed closely on one of our Slalom blades. Using this combination we have produced a versatile touring blade, which encourages you to blend strokes. The Bombora gives a smooth feel through each stroke and has a rock solid, but not exhausting catch. Its shorter blades give quick and easy exit, which assist in faster acceleration. Bombora will take you to that distant offshore play spot and give you the range of strokes to ride the waves when you get there.
Suitable Body Weight Limits: 63kg (10st) - 114kg (18st)
The Bombora is one of are our 'available stock' paddles shown on the price list. The blades are available in all construction styles, but only in set colour combination's. Alternative constructed colour combination's are available on request for an extra fee of £10.00
