Braca IV with Low Impact!
All Braca IV components with soft blade option
A soft blade tends to be more forgiving on the joints and muscles during long paddling sessions, reducing strain and fatigue. This is particularly advantageous for paddlers who engage in distance, endurance, or have overuse injuries. 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. Widely acclaimed, the Braca IV is also highly recommended as a first choice for those venturing into wing paddles. Its iconic teardrop shape, pioneered by the Braca IV, continues to dominate as one of the world's most favored performance wing paddles. PURCHASE
