Prototype Reviews

Really excited for the production series from Core to come out. I used one of the prototypes in my last mexico trip on the Alseseca and Jalacingo rivers. Between the ergonomic grips, the strong carbon fibre blades and the seriously badass Easton aluminum shaft, this paddle surpasses any other I've ever used.

Straight off the bat, this paddle rocks.
Shaft, Sick! Well done on a bomber product.

Lachie Carracher, Team Test Paddler

I will sum up my thoughts of the paddle design , grips, blade power with one sentence.
I sold my Werner Ikelos this week, I have a Core instead.

Mark Hall, Delta Kayaks

Best paddle I have ever used.I highly recommend the new CORE ww paddles and look forward to getting my hands on a CORE touring paddle and CORE C-1 ww paddle soon.

Bryon Dorr, Next Adventure

Everyone wanted to check out the new blades. General consensus - no one is buying a paddle till they can get their hands on a CORE :-)

Ben Fraser, Team Test Paddler

You will first notice that the paddle is surprising light. The paddle swings incredibly nicely and the blade pulls through the water without flutter.
Over all, with the longevity potential, materials used and design of this paddle I will say it is the best paddle I have ever used.

Dave Nieuwenhuis, Team Test Paddler

I love what you did with the Grips, HELL YES. The shafts seem absolutely bomber.

Billy Harris, Team Test Paddler


The shaft is both technically and in 'feel' superior to anything I've ever used, hands down the best shaft available. Great playboating paddle, I would defiantly recommend this to any serious playboater looking for a high end paddle.
