The Contact Midi blades have an asymmetrical shape with a small rib on it's back side.
Easy to use, they enable a very pleasant and balanced forward stroke and Duffek stroke.
The CONTACT MIDI size is suitable for older children and junior racers without an aggressive riding style.
These blades have integral alloy edges to resist abrasion. Use in salt water is not recommended.
We put the K1 NO SLIDE shaft into production in 2021 after two years of testing. This 100% carbon prepreg shaft is designed and dimensioned for slalom kayakers. It is the first shaft in the world which has a non-slip surface, which guarantees a better grip and reduces the possibility of the shaft slipping unintentionally in the palm of your hand. The pole is suitable for slalom kayakers who want the best.
