Cataract Blade
The floater.
Named after the brand from which it was born, the Cataract Blade is a strong and reliable choice for any rowing application, from fishing to whitewater. A moderately thick cross-section allows this paddle to slice into the water, and the teardrop-style shape allows you to pull with power when you need to or feather your stroke for precise maneuvering. And standing as the most buoyant blade in it's class, this blade is nicknamed, the floater, and helps you get through long days, or weeks, on the river.

Two color blades sent
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
I was pretty disappointed to receive two different color blades. Although this does not affect the performance one bit, I expected my product to look identical and new. One of them looks very faded compared to the other. When I reached out to Backcountry about it, they said it shouldn't affect performance and didn't offer to exchange it for a matching blade. Probably won't be buying from Backcountry again very soon with that product quality coupled with the lack of solutions...
