Braca Kid
Brača Kid is a 'parallel-edge' blade with a proportionally smaller blade size and with proprietary material characteristics and mechanics of the paddle that are specifically designed to fit children’s physiology. It enables absorption of impact from each paddle stroke, thereby reducing shock on the shoulders, elbows and wrists and ultimately decreasing common kayak injuries. These small blade sizes are also great for marathon and long-distance adult paddlers!

Additionally, the flexibility of a soft blade can provide a gentler entry into the water, which helps maintain a smooth and efficient stroke technique. The Braca IV (4) represents the original 'teardrop' design, renowned as a leading carbon wing paddle across various competitive paddling disciplines including Olympic Sprints, World Marathon Championships, and Surfski. It excels in optimizing power application during the catch and mid-stroke, thereby enhancing the forward stroke experience to its utmost potential.

Its iconic teardrop shape, pioneered by the Braca IV, continues to dominate as one of the world's most favored performance wing paddles. PURCHASE
