Got on the lake for a few hours this morning and tested out the stingray for the first time. I am totally impressed. This thing is super light and strong. Felt like there was no wasted energy due to flex on this paddle. I didnt have a gps to check speed, but i was blowing by my friends easily. The paddle did great with both a high angle and low angle stroke with plenty of bite in the water to get accelerating quickly from a dead stop. The biggest difference for me was paddling into the current where most paddles seems to give a little with thise extra hard strokes to overcome mother nature.....this paddle made it effortless. Im sold on aqua bound. American made, great price ($152 at ACK) and works like a champ. Now for some pics.
