Lima Paddle

PADDLES THAT WIN

The direct catch and ability to redirect automatically is what makes our world champion race team choose the Lima.

Our champions boast that the Lima propels the board faster through the water.

The new standard in high-performance paddling.

THE MOST WINNING PADDLE

Our dream team is using a production paddle and here are their choices:

Connor Baxter 71kg chooses Lima XL for tech and sprint & Lima L for distance. S35
Michael Booth 78kg chooses Lima XL S35 for all conditions
Esperanza Barrera 61kg chooses Lima M
Fiona Wylde 64kg chooses Lima M S45 for all conditions.
Daniel Hasulyo 68-72kg chooses LIMA XL with S30 for all conditions.
Clement Colmas 68kg chooses Lima M S30
Caterina Stenta 54kg chooses Lima M

AND ALSO GREAT FOR TOURING

The Lima paddle is also great for flat water and touring.

Bart De Zwart, SUP expedition legend chooses “I choose a Lima M S35 with a longer shaft than most other riders, this is because for longer races you stand up straighter and the stroke is longer with slower frequency.”

NEW LIMA CNC CORE TWIN RIBS SHAPE

  • Reduce 15% of core volume
  • The ribs create blade strength and ability to cut through the water faster
  • (Only with prepreg carbon blade)

THE CONCAVE

    • The concave on the power face is guiding the water throughout the blade controlling the wobbling and increasing the water flow speed.
    • The edge defining the concave starts round-shaped at the tip of the blade to separate the water smoothly. It then becomes sharper to dictate the water its path and stabilize the blade.
    • All your power is transferred in a straight forward motion as you don’t need to worry about paddle alignment in the water anymore.

BLADE ANGLE

Unique Profile

    • The lima has a unique narrow and flat profile allowing you to pull the blade very close to the rail of the board, giving it a really nice line. Combine to a 10° angle, the power phase is very efficient making all your energy going in a straight forward motion.

SUPER HANDLE

    • The new Super Handle changes the way we paddle
    • The flat top and wide grip create new powerful leverage of the whole paddle and the blade
    • One can steer the paddle on slight angles and remain with full power
    • Especially good for side winds and keeping the board on the course you may set.

THE TRASH PICKER

Comes With Every Paddle

    • Use the trash picker as a helpful tool to pick up plastic and other trash while paddling. It’s made from recycled plastic and comes with every paddle. Store the trash in a bag or pocket it until you reach the shore.
