QuickBlade products are the natural evolution of paddle performance founded on years of competitive racing by Jim Terrell. Jim's paddling career began in southwest Ohio on the Little Miami River near his hometown of Milford.
The signature feature of all QUICK BLADE paddles is excellent performance. A quick catch at the beginning and a clean exit at the end of the stroke prompted the name QUICK BLADE.
Only after determining the ultimate requirements for performance, was the compromise of strength, durability, lightweight and cost addressed.
Kanaha Padlle
Not everybody who decides to try standup paddling decides to try the exact same type of standup paddling.
In standup paddling, the old saying “Different strokes for different folks” is certainly true. It makes sense, then, that there are different types of standup surf paddles, and Quick Blade makes three.
The Kanaha standup paddle is named after the famous Kanaha surf break on Maui. The Kanaha standup paddle gives you an extremely efficient and durable blade.
It features a slight dihedral on both sides of the all-carbon blade, which improves stability along the longitudinal axis during the power phase, meaning you don’t have to fight to keep the blade from twisting as you paddle. The Kanaha blade also incorporates an ABS plastic edge for improved impact strength.
All of this technology resides at the end of a smooth, lightweight carbon fiber shaft, for a strong paddle that won’t fatigue your shoulders lifting it in and out of the water all day long.
