Z&J SPORT Dragon Boat Paddle Carbon Fiber, IDBF Approved Paddle with T Handle for Dragon Boat Paddler, Full Carbon Dragon Boat Paddles for Dragon Boat Team

I have been paddling since the 90’s and this is the 1st time I’ve used a CF paddle during a race. This paddle is just plain awesome, well constructed and very sturdy. Not too light nor heavy and well balanced. There are a lot of CF paddle out there and would cost you an arm and a leg. This CF paddle is well priced and not to mention it came with a free bag! This CF paddle will be seeing a lot of action in the years to come! Oh by the way, this CF paddle is also good for digging GOLD in the Division A Race! Thanks Z & J!

So much lighter than my wood paddle for sure. I bought this before my first dragon boat race, and it made a big difference in my paddling -- especially since I'm a newbie (less than a year paddling). I don't get tired much with this baby. I can focus on my technique instead of the weight of my paddle. It may not have the big brand name, but it's good quality. Does not look cheap. And doesn't cost $200 either. I think this is great for beginners who don't want to spend much money, but want a lightweight paddle. A great value.

Bought the 48' paddle for the 2016 Season and have had it for a couple of weeks. Compared it with paddles that other members of my club had bought and it holds up well against more expensive brands. The finish is smooth and the paddle looks very well made. I couldn't find any imperfections with it. It is extremely light and feels good while paddling. If you are looking for your first carbon fiber paddle, you won't go wrong with the Z&J paddle. You will definitely get your money's worth! Note: I did not receive any discount, compensation or get the paddle for free. I paid for it with my hard earned money and this review is genuine!

Tried this paddle out for the first time last night and it was so much better than the wooden one I was using. Super lightweight and probably the best price you'll find for a new carbon fiber dragon boat paddle. Great for a newer dragon boat paddler like myself who is just getting into the sport.

My 14-year old is a member of her school's drag boat team, she's been nagging about wanting a carbon fiber paddle, so we bought it for her as a Christmas present. When I received the delivery, the box felt so light that made me think it was empty, I was wrong, it is that light! She has not tried it out yet, will update my review when I receive any feedback from her. I also happen to have a spare guitar hanger Tetra-Teknica Essentials Series EGH-01NW-2P Hardwood Home & Studio Guitar Hanger, 2 Pack , so I put it up on her room's wall, it hangs perfectly!

Excellent product. Fast delivery

Paddle is very lightweight and pretty god for the price.

This is comparable to high-end paddles that cost north of $300. At the price range of this paddle, it's a steal considering its weight and performance. It is so lightweight yet able to withstand bumps with paddles of other paddlers. I use this for our weekly practice (3x a week) and in competition and it never disappoints.
