The Strike Bent Shaft brings the same mid-sized blade-forward performance as the straight shaft version, with the addition of Werner's Neutral Bent shaft for paddlers who want ergonomic relief without giving up anything in power or reliability. Built for smaller paddlers and women running technical whitewater who want efficient, strain-free strokes on demanding downriver runs.

The blade-forward design increases the offset between blade and shaft, positioning the blade more vertically through the power phase for cleaner energy transfer on every stroke. The mid-sized blade handles the full range of downriver demands without overwhelming smaller paddlers, and the low-profile reinforcement spine keeps the blade stiff and responsive when linking multiple strokes in quick succession. Dihedral maintains smooth, stable forward paddling even in turbulent water.

Werner's Neutral Bent shaft delivers the joint-friendly ergonomics of a crank shaft with a feel that's much closer to a straight shaft than traditional bent designs. For paddlers logging hard days on the river, that difference adds up. Bomber fibreglass construction throughout means the Strike is built to handle repeated rock contact and heavy use. Available exclusively in the high-visibility Galaxy HD Graphic finish. Stocked at Frontenac Outfitters in 30-degree right-hand feather, with custom lengths, offsets, and small shaft options available on a 4 to 8 week lead time.
