VE Skera Aircore Carbon Paddle

Lightweight carbon paddle for sea kayaking

The Skera paddle is a fantastic choice for all-round sea paddling and touring. The classic touring blade design offers a dependable catch and smooth stroke ina range of conditions. These are mid-sized blades that offer are pleasant to use all day-long, with just enough power for quick bursts of acceleration when needed. The Skera is a paddle that will suit the majority for most paddling scenarios, but for those who may prefer more power from their blade then consider the VE Fara, or for those wanting a low-power / easy-paddling blade then look at the VE Vanda.

The lightweight aircore blades are buoyant and provide easier exit from the water and help the paddle to feel featherlight during each paddle stroke. The pressed blade edges provide increased durability with a clean slice action into the water. The Touring-Lite construction provides a very light feel and reduced swing weight for effortless paddle strokes. The smooth dihedral blade face reduces blade flutter, makes for easy linking of paddle strokes.

The 2-piece carbon shaft features a corrosion-free nylon Kajak Sport ferrule with 10cm of length adjustment and infinite blade feathering adjustment. The shaft is ovalised/indexed on both sides for better grip and connection to the shaft, with a ground finish to the carbon to provide better grip in hand. The carbon shaft provides a stiff feel with direct contact to the water for increased performance.

VE paddles are favoured by many sea kayakers and tourers across the UK, and the Skera makes a great choice for those wanting a versatile paddle for paddling a range of conditions.
