"I
have used H2O Paddles for the past 4 seasons and have seen an tremendous
improvement in the build, design and construction. A notable improvement
includes a much higher tensile epoxy used which allows for a bombproof seal
under the greatest of stresses., no more leaky blades! I can never ignore the
durability of H2O Paddles. I can throw my paddle around on the river, use it
for shovelling my van out of mud, use it as a trunk prop on the same old van
and still rely on it it to perform on the river when it counts most.
I
have used and my H2O 2 this past season with over 150 days on the river, three
countries and dozens of 55-70+ ft waterfall descents, the paddle withstood
these big impacts and continued to perform. A quote from video footage at the
70 foot Middle Palguin as the H20 2 went over for a third time...Kyle Hull -
"That paddle has lasted so many drops!". And it was true, on
our 2009-2010 trip to Chile I was the only one to not have a paddle break, the
only guy using H2O Paddles!"
