Werner Double Diamond 1 Piece Straight Shaft - Key Features
Werner Double Diamond is designed for technically advanced freestyle riders looking for a paddle with precise handling and top performance. The straight-blade model offers the most direct power transfer to the stroke while maintaining minimal weight. It utilizes advanced carbon construction and foam-core dihedral blades that provide buoyancy and dynamic response even when tricking in aerated water.
Sheet design and shot characteristics
The blades have an asymmetrical shape with a distinctive dihedral profile that ensures a stable and smooth stroke without vibration. Thanks to the foam core, the blades have buoyancy and "bounce" from the water surface, which will be appreciated by freestyle riders when eskimoing or playboating. The 47.75 × 19.25 cm sheet size with a surface area of 683 cm² provides an excellent ratio between grip and control.
Construction and materials
Werner Double Diamond uses top materials:
- Carbon sheets with foam core - buoyancy and strength under extreme loads
- Carbon Straight Shaft - light, straight and rigid construction

The finish of the blades is an elegant carbon black, the mast has a matt protective finish.
