A great paddle, when I borrowed someone else’s I had to buy one. It’s so light over an aluminium one. The response to it is great. Used for a relaxing session and race. The design flows through the water smoothly and the handle has a good position. There’s no handle rotation because of a loose collar which is great.

Purchased two of these paddles to replace aluminium paddles, nice and rigid carbon fibre, neat and well executed. Great, length range works for me and son at 6ft 2 and the wife at 5ft. Excelllent upgrade at sensible money.

Really pleased with this paddle. It is the second one we've bought as the first was an upgrade with our Sandbanks SUP. Great value, and even better when the price dropped to £100! I use it for general paddling and some sup surfing in small waves.

Great paddle and well worth the upgrade. I've used it a couple of times already and it is very sturdy and extremely light as to be expected. It has certainly improved my paddling performance and I can now keep up with my mate who has a carbon McConks paddle. My only gripe is that there is no carry bag. At this price range, I would have expected one.

Although I had a question over the weight - my paddle is around 710g-720g versus the hoped for 630g, it is nevertheless a really nice paddle. The fitting is tight so there is no play despite it being a 3 piece - but it is easy to dismantle and put together. The blade is solid. I am no expert in SUP paddles being more used to kayaking- but this seems like a very good value paddle - equivalent in weight or lighter to competitors Carbon paddles but far less costly. It floats (seems some SUP paddles don't which is just bizarre) - though it did take on a little bit of water after repeated submersions - but it still floated. The customer service from Sandbanks was also excellent. Definitely worth buying I would say.
