Athena 2 Piece Straight Shaft (Factory Second)

The Athena's smaller-sized blades pull effortlessly through each stroke, for less fatigue in smaller paddlers. Built with our most advanced blade designs, you’ll feel exceptionally light, buoyant strokes while the smooth back face gives a quiet entrance and exit from the water. The Athena is the smart choice for smaller paddlers who have a low-angle style of paddling and want a blade to match their stature. 

What is a Factory Second? Factory seconds are structurally sound paddles with minor cosmetic issues, including scratches, porosity, fading, irregularities, and color variation.  Most of these imperfections will be found on the blades. Due to constantly shifting inventory, we cannot offer detailed information or photos concerning the condition of a specific paddle.  We offer our standard 1-year warranty and 30-day return policy on these cosmetically blemished models.
