So far, Im really enjoying
this paddle. I bought it to
replace an old Harmony
Adventurer paddle. The
Harmony paddle was still
better than some others that I
tried, but I didnt feel like I
was getting enough power out
of it. In comparison, the
Manta Ray has larger blades
and I can definitely feel more
resistance in the water. I
can quickly get up to speed
with a few hard strokes, but
then I feel like I can
maintain my cruising speed
while working less than I did
with my old paddle. The
weight of the Manta Ray is
great for this price-point
too.

I have a trident angler 13.
Initially I bought a 230 cm
paddle. The manta ray 240cm
paddle is much lighter and
makes reaching the water to
produce a more productive
stroke easier, and less energy
consuming. It is a pleasure to
use and I dont plan on buying
another paddle until this one
wears out

A fine paddle. Light and
sturdy, with good sized
blades. A paddle after my
heart! I have used it 3 times
so far. Just added Yakgrips/
Velcro version to it. Hoping
that these will improve the
grip comfort of it, although
the carbonfiber shaft by
itself was not unpleasant or
unconfortable and is thick
enough for large hands. The
plastic blades are strong and
scratch resistant. Well, I
guess you get what you pay
for.

husbands birthday and he
LOVES it. Its so light weight
and it really propels
him. Only problem is that I

now. :

The Manta Ray is a great
paddle. It has the power to
propel myself and my daughter
in our large sit-on-top tandem
and it provides awesome speed
in my single. I was most
impressed with the lack of any
flutter. This is my new go-to
paddle. It's so nice to get
the ACK discount also. I am
happy to finally upgrade to
carbon.

Have used Epic paddles for
years and loved them. My
wife needed a new paddle but
since we're both
retired now couldn't afford
another Epic or Warner.
Some Aqua Bounds had lot of
negative feedback but I
found this one excellent in
open water/beach
landings and rivers so am
very satisfied.
