- DWDavid W.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars1 year agoAs advertised!
The lightest paddle I own (out of 6 double blades). Several of these are the Werner Camanos. I like its rigidity and slightly smaller blade size. It does make a difference in how long I paddle. I also have an old (18 years) Grey Owl double, all carbon fiber, that a bit larger blade and almost as light. If the Athena turns out to be as durable as the Owl, the high price will be justifies.
- AKAlan K.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars4 years agoWerner Athena straight paddle
Really light and pops out easily on each stroke. Smaller blade size and buoyant blade really make it easy. Offset adjust,ent since this is a 2 piece is well done.
- AAnonymousRated 5 out of 5 stars6 years agoPerforms as Promised
I've had extreme shoulder pain due to arthritis for several years and was about to give up kayaking. This year I bit the bullet and got a lightweight (44 lbs) kayak and the Athena. I also learned to paddle properly, with the torso rather than shoulder movement. My pain has been reduced by about 75%. Though the price caused me quite a bit of anxiety, I have not regretted my purchase: the Athena performs exactly as promised by Werner.
