The Ikelos is a great paddle. It is Werner's first high angle foam core sea kayaking paddle. Werner came out with its first foam core paddle just a few years ago. In 2003, Werner came out with the Kalliste, a low angle foam core paddle.

Foam Core paddles are light and have lots of flotation. The blade floats to the surface making the exit phase of the forward stroke easier. While this is a proven design we still want to know how it holds up over a few years of hard use.

The Ikelos is a large high angle blade. Good for the 210 cm to 220 cm lengths.

Werner offers the Ikelos with a straight or bent shaft in carbon. While the bent shaft costs slightly more than the straight shaft version, we strongly recommend the bent shaft. We find that most people prefer the bent shaft. It does take a few days to adjust to the feel of a bent shaft paddle, but once you adjust you won?t want to go back to a straight shaft.
