Carbon
The Nitro sets the standard for versatile use paddles. Light enough (hovering at 16 ounces) to use all day but strong enough to charge the bigger sets. It truly can do it all. Design features like our innovative shape and blade to shaft offset make it equally at home surfing, charging down wind, finding inner peace or just touring around.
Features

• Ultimate performance brings together all of our most advanced designs.
• As innovators we saw a need to move from the tear drop shape. Our longer, rectangular, slender blade design is easier on the body with a more gentle catch that does not sacrifice blade size and power.
• The volume of the buoyant, full carbon, blade creates an exceedingly light feel for effortless and confident strokes, while the smooth back face is smooth and quiet.
• Dihedral allows for smooth and stable forward paddling, a core philosophy for Werner.
• Seven degree blade-to-shaft offset offers great forward stroke while freeing the blade from catching while surfing.
• Dynel® edges protect the paddle from the rigors of all-around SUP use.
• Small-sized blades are an ideal fit for the great majority of smaller sized paddlers.
• Also available in Small Fit, the perfect fit for female paddlers. (Fixed length only.)
• Optimized flex and strength, for comfort all day without sacrificing power or confidence.

• SUP Small Fit

Werner innovated small fit paddles and in our decades of experience the large majority of female paddlers benefit from this option. Available on our most popular SUP paddles, ladies not can match a Small or Mid-sized blade with a small diameter shaft and innovative small sized grip. Performance starts with the proper fit and you will immediately be able to grasp with a lighter grip for better technique and to eliminate fatigue. To see if Small Fit is best for you, measure your hand size by placing a ruler at the base of your hand (at the joint of your wrist) and measuring to the tip of your middle finger. If you measure smaller than 6.5" we suggest small shaft. Longer, go to our standard shaft. If you are on the line, we suggest you try both at an authorized Werner dealer and see for yourself. Paddlers with shorter, thicker fingers also gravitate to small shaft. More control, more comfort with Small Fit.

Blade Designs

Blade Dihedral
