Insanity Fiberglass Travel Stand-Up Paddle

There's more water on Earth than you could ever dream of exploring, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't get out and see as much as you can. Packing up your paddling gear isn't easy, though, which is why Kialoa made the Insanity Fiberglass Travel Stand-Up Paddle. The grippy Palm LeverLock handle contains a mechanism that lets you adjust the shaft between 70 and 86 inches, and the locking collar at the bottom of the shaft makes it easy to pop off the blade and lower shaft, which shortens the whole package to about three feet for easy travel.

Don't worry, all this adjustability doesn't come at the cost of performance. The round fiberglass shaft is strong and highly durable, for safety on the water and in transit, and the recycled Fibrlite fiberglass composite blade handles encounters with rocks and other obstacles with ease. The blade is built with a ten-degree bend that helps you nail a repeatable and efficient stroke, and the Insanity weighs just over 30 ounces, so it won't weigh you down when you're hitting the road or finally getting on the water.
