The Sho-Gun uses Werner’s most advanced technology in this river running paddle. As powerful as its name suggests (Sho-Gun “General” was a legendary figure in Japanese culture), the rivers that paddlers take the Sho-Gun often need some aggression to navigate each horizon line.
Features:
- The volume of the buoyant, full carbon, blade gives confidence for rolling and bracing, especially in aerated rapids.
- Dihedral allows for smooth and stable forward paddling, a core philosophy for Werner.
- With whitewater specific reinforcement channels, our low-profile back face design allows for a quieter catch and effortless exit of the stroke while maintaining strength.
- Dynel® edges and Kevlar® reinforcement protect the paddle from the rigors of the whitewater environment.
- Full sized blades are and ideal fit for larger, well-conditioned paddlers or those looking for more powerful strokes on shorter steeper rapids.
- Optimized flex and strength. Fiberglass straight shaft.
