Cheaper.. more durable and still light.
I just posted this on Scotty's thread about kids paddles but I think it deserves a thread of its own.
I'll post more info when I get it.. Here's a few of pics of the new Kialoa paddle.
"The 3 new SUP paddles are part of our new line called the "Ikaika Series".
The blades are constructed with a material call Continuous Fiber Reinforced Thermo Plastic (CFRT).
This material is light, durable, and less expensive than carbon/fiberglass and epoxy.".. Dave Chun.
That looks like our Sam standing next to Mel Pu'u in that last pic..
