Seven2 Helio Paddle

Item #SVT0005 | 0 in Stock
5 Star Rating

most comfortable whitewater stick of all time

By Ranked #136 - Paddles May 30, 2007

After paddling seven2's rec/touring carbon stick, i decided to try their whitewater paddle. Super impressive. The grips are totally intuitive, not uncomfortable at all. I felt like i had more control over my paddle, and i felt more aware of any funky movement in my stroke. The aircore on the blade and the superlight materials made the blade feel more buoyant, giving me more power during braces and rolls. The blade and shaft are super stiff, you get huge pop out of your stroke. And its like the volkl gotama of paddles, its more hardcore, more powerful, and sexier looking than anything else. And Steve Fisher paddles with the helio. Does anything more need to be said?
