Description:
The Werner Camano Fiberglass Straight Shaft kayak paddle features a low angle mid-sized blade design.
ACK Review:
I recently got to use Werner Camano Fiber Glass paddle on the San Marcos River and was very surprised with how little effort I needed to maneuver the paddle through the water. I, like many paddlers, go between hard, fast paced strokes, and leisurely strokes. My upper body was not drained of energy after my aggressive paced paddling between City Park and Rio Vista Park. Be careful when you paddle in shallower waters, the blade can seem a bit fragile when it brushed up against some rocks. I know it will hold up but it's an expensive paddle and I was borrowing it. The paddle performed superbly when I was paddling upstream and had to fight the current, my arms did not get tired at all.

I was very skeptical about how much of a
deference a quality paddle could make. I was
getting pain in my shoulder after just a short trip
one or two miles. But now after getting the
Werner Camano I paddle all day and don’t have
any pain in my shoulder. (Love This Paddle
!!!!!!!!!)

Great paddle!! It has increased
my range considerably from the
heavier paddle that I had before.
It is also a very efficient paddle.

Excellent lightweight paddle.
Not noisy entering the water -
important when watching for
wildlife.
I miss the right-hand raised
portion on the shaft that my
old Werner paddle has.

I ordered the Camano to replace
the Werner Skagit CF. The Camano
is lighter and very easy to
handle. Looks great too!

Its nice although pricey.
Lightweight yet very
durable. High quality and I
really like the way you
put it together rather than
with a push pin. In
spite of the price, Id buy it
again.

Paddle was not that much
lighter than my Aqua Bound,
but still
very satisfied. I like the
feathering, which the other
paddle
didnt have and love the look
of the red paddle.

Love these paddles. If given the choice between a new boat or new paddles... I think I'd pick the paddles. These made a HUGE difference over the standard fiberglass/nylon Carlisle paddles I had before.

Great paddle so far in the inter-coastal here. I found the Camanos to be very light compared to my previous paddles. I loved the way they felt in the water and do think they are less fatiguing. The adjustments for feathering are precise, easy to read and do. Glad I bought them.

A few weeks back I bought two sets of Werner Camano Fiberglass Straight Shaft Paddles, one for my son and another for myself. Now that we have put quite a few hours and a lot of miles paddling around the Maltese Islands,I can say that buying this paddle was the right choice. The currents in the Mediterranean Sea can be very strong, but with the Camano, we hardly got tired and finished our tours in total relexation.
