QUICKBLADE Stingray SUP Foil Paddle

The Stingray uses a shorter, 10-inch blade specifically to speed up your stroke cycle. By reducing the surface area and length, you can catch and exit the water faster, which is critical for maintaining the high cadence required when foiling.

The winged shape is designed to stabilize the blade during the power phase. It prevents the blade from wandering or fluttering, creating a snappy, direct feel that helps you drive forward efficiently without wasting energy.

Yes, the taper serves two purposes: it reduces drag below your bottom hand where the paddle enters the water, and it allows for a specific flex pattern. This gives you a stiffer, more responsive feel at the bottom for power, while maintaining enough flex at the top to be comfortable during long sessions.

Choose the fixed length if you want the absolute lightest weight and maximum stiffness for high-performance riding. The adjustable option is better if you share your paddle, want to experiment with different lengths for different foil setups, or prefer the convenience of travel.

While 65 sq/in is considered a smaller blade, it is optimized for the mechanics of foiling rather than traditional flatwater paddling. Because foiling requires a faster stroke rate to generate lift, this size is actually ideal for most riders to maintain that necessary speed without overloading their muscles.
