Milu meaning "softer" in Hawaiian, this paddle is best those looking for a smaller volume blade. This paddle features the classic teardrop blade design with a double-bend shaft. The very slight scoop on the leading edge of the blade allows it to enter the water cleanly, with a nice catch, yet allows it to exit quickly and cleanly as well. At the catch position, the double-bend oval shaft (smaller in diameter than our original paddle) promotes a comfortable, loose grip and relaxed wrist.
The wood shaft on the hybrid option is handmade and features a T-grip.
The carbon handle on the carbon shaft features a palm grip. All Puakea carbon paddles feature enough flex to be easy on the joints.
Standard sizes: 46-53, Custom sizes: any size lower than 46, any size higher than 53, and half sizes.
