Nice but flexible - my new review

My one dislike of this paddle and the reason I sent it back was that it was too flexible for me. I bought it as a replacement for the one that came with my board. It was just too bendy as I paddled. Being a bigger guy, I weigh around 260, I needed something with more sturdiness. Other than that it was easy to assemble, felt great in the hand, and the padded bag was a great addition.

Pros
  • Great product for the money, the carbon fiber is really nice and even comes with a carrying case.
Cons
  • May not float if dropped

Feel my paddle is flawed

After using this paddle for about 1 season and the start of the next, this paddle is a nightmare. That may sound dramatic, but putting the paddle together and taking it apart is a two person job. This can not be right. I feel as if the paddle is flawed. It is near impossible to fit the paddle to the middle section with the push button clasp. We literally have to spend 10 minutes just trying to turn and force the pieces together. Finally, they are together, now the hardest part. Breaking down…

Pros
  • Fast shipping
Cons
  • Not suitable for beginners

Good value and paddle

Arrived promptly, easy to put together. Works well. Great to use while paddling fast. Comes with a sturdy bag Haven''t used it much yet, but grip feels great and it''s a lot lighter than my original paddle..

Pros
  • Haven't used it much yet, but grip feels great and it's a lot lighter than my original paddle.
Cons
  • Too much flex - feels like it will break when used with liberal force.

Love this Paddle - my new review

This paddle is a game changer for paddle boarding. It's so light and sturdy. The carrying case is such a bonus too - looks like cool instrument case and takes up no space at all. I can't go back to my old aluminum paddle after buying this. It doesn't seem to have the give that multi-part paddles usually have.

Pros
  • Beautifully designed. Love the carbon shaft and easy carry case
Cons
  • May not be compatible with all paddleboard accessories

Good value paddle for casual rider

Solid paddle for the price. Well designed in terms of weight, size of paddle, grip, portability. Nice bag included as well. Can’t go wrong for an $80 paddle.Edit: ended up returning after a few uses because the handle started spinning on me. I decided to upgrade to a better paddle that will last me longer.

Pros
  • Very happy with my new paddle! Great Quality and value for the price. Highly recommend!
Cons
  • Carrying bag may not be durable

You won't find a better paddle for the money!

I love how light and comfortable this paddle is. It is very efficient. The composite that the paddle portion is made of, is very durable and works well. I highly recommend considering this paddle.

Pros
  • Water Sports
Cons
  • May not be suitable for use in freshwater

Upon first use of paddle the handle end of paddle filled up with water and the water wont come out. Contacted company twice via email. No response back. The paddle was very lightweight before water got stuck in it.

Pros
  • The paddle is awesome .. adjustable, lightweight and pretty.
Cons
  • May require additional maintenance compared to other paddles

Paddle blade is not designed well and breaks

I purchased this paddle as a backup travel and surf paddle. It is a bit heavy but the price was right at the time and it came with a nice bag. Unfortunately, I have had the same problem happen to me 3 times with the blade snapping at the shaft. The first time it was determined to be a manufacturing defect. The 2nd time, I was within the warranty period and they shipped me out a replacement. This paddle snapped less than a year later but outside of the initial warranty period so now I am out of…

Pros
  • Stand-Up Paddleboarding
Cons
  • May require additional maintenance to prevent corrosion

Not that light weight

I bought this thinking it was made of Carbon and it’s light weight but it’s only a very small part of the paddle that is carbon and it’s not really light weight comparing to my cheap $6 paddles

Pros
  • Easy to travel with. Not as light as I was hoping though.
Cons
  • Assembly required

First paddle broke within two uses but Abahub fixed the issue

Metal button connecting two of the pieces jammed after using it twice. I was impressed though that Ahabub reached out proactively and sent me a new paddle - thanks!

Pros
  • The paddle looks great, and is very easy to adjust for size.
Cons
  • Minimal grip on the paddle shaft

Nice and light but still a plastic blade so not so fragile

Awesome weight and balance, just gave myself a blood blister snapping the handle together. But operator error doesn't take away from a great product at a fantastic price!

Pros
  • Carrying case is great. Lightweight.
Cons
  • May not be suitable for use in high winds

Good paddle for the price

Good paddle for the price. Would be better if the blade wasnt so heavy, VERY blade heavy in the water. WEll see how long the adjustment system works. Still a good buy.

Pros
  • PREMIUM PADDLE BAG: All paddles come with a free travel bag (size in 36’’x11’’). With superb quality zipper, handle, shoulder strap and inner flap for the blade, this bag provides perfect protection as well as convenience for travelling.
Cons
  • May not be suitable for use with inflatable paddleboards

Good quality for good price

this exceeded my expectations. The price is exceptional. The weight is good and it was easy to assemble. I especially love the bags which helps to pack the paddel especially for travel or at the end of the season.

Pros
  • ‎Carbon Fiber Shaft & Carbon Fiber Print Plastic Blade
Cons
  • May not be a good choice for beginners

Travels well on my review.

Arrived on time. The bag is nice to have and compact enough to stow it easily for travel to/from the beach. That's my feedback.

Pros
  • Great paddle!
Cons
  • May not be suitable for use in saltwater

Great Paddle - my new review

The paddle appears well made and is light enough to use for long periods of time on the water without fatigue Thanks for attention!

Pros
  • Sports
Cons
  • May not be suitable for use in pet-friendly waters

Solid for the price

Not quite as lightweight as my friend's more expensive and fancy carbon fiber paddle, but still a huge improvement over the paddle my board came with. Nice carrying case. If you have a bigger budget then sure, go with something fancy - if not, you'll be happy with what you get here.

Pros
  • Easy to assemble and it comes w a nice bag for storage.
Cons
  • May be hard on your shoulders

A super light but solid paddle

I'm new to paddling and this is my first paddle. For a beginner, the paddle cannot be more ideal. It is light, solid, and easy to grip. The paddle can be easily taken apart into three pieces and carried along in a bag that came with it. Quite a bargain for how much it is. The delivery was on time--in fact, it arrived sooner than expected--and the product is exactly how it is advertised. I'm very excited and cannot wait for my first paddling!

Pros
  • Seems ok
Cons
  • May not be suitable for racing

Nice paddle! good for me

What a difference! I have to get used to the lack of weight while moving it from one side to the other. Practically throwing it over! The shaft is well made and sturdy. Easy to put together, edges are smooth, doesn’t twist around while paddling. Less fatigue and more distance covered. The paddle is pretty solid and withstands bumps and scrapes. Nice to have a bag to put the pieces in for storage. Happy with the paddle!

Pros
  • Nice quality. Love the storage bad that comes with it.
Cons
  • May not be as buoyant as other paddles

Good for Light Duty

I started SUP surfing in April 2021. This was the first paddle that I bought. I had no issues with the paddle the first one or two times that I used it. After the third time though, I noticed that water was getting inside the paddle. I wrote to the company and they told me to remove the plug if I was able. I was never able to find a tool that would do that. I could shake the water out after each surf session, but it took a ton of shaking each time. I used the paddle like this until December…

Pros
  • ABAHUB Warranty: we've been manufacturing paddles for over 10 years. We know what we're doing and we stand by our products. If you're not happy with our products, we'll offer you replacement or refund with "No Question Asked" warranty.
Cons
  • Not as versatile as other paddle materials

I am new to SUP so this review is from my experience that your paddle is the second most important item next to your PFD. Spend your $$ on a good PFD and Paddle and upgrade your craft as your skills and conditions change. I paddled WW canoes, kayaks, rafts, and squirt boats both privately and as a video kayaker.I have only used this Abahub paddle a few times , one class 2-3 WW and rest mild river and a reservoir. Giant step up from the paddle included with my board. The shaft fits together…

Pros
  • CARBON SHAFT: The carbon composite shaft contributes to the lightweight of the whole paddle. It’s stiff yet with certain flexibility required to maintain better performance and protect the shaft from breaking under extreme powerful stroke. The ergonomic and patterned PP handle grip increases traction and comfort for the hand.
Cons
  • May not be suitable for use with small children
