Protest presents its Paddle Supboard
For 2017 the big news at Protest is its Paddle Supboard. With its funky, colorful look, it won't go unnoticed and will be the envy of many!
This is an inflatable paddle that we were able to test on Lake Annecy.
The paddle has been developed by Lokahi, a specialist in the nautical world, bringing a number of major advantages to the product.
1) Features
The pack includes :
- - An inflatable paddle
- - A paddle (50% carbon)
- - A fin
- - A pump to inflate the paddle
- - A bag for storage and transport. This is a backpack with hip reinforcement for easier carrying.
2) Instructions for use
- Remove the equipment from its bag,
- Connect the pump to the paddle: be sure to set the "do not deflate " position on the connector so as not to lose air once the pump is removed.
- Inflate for a good 5 minutes (reach position 15 on the pump for sufficient inflation).
- Position the fin.
- Put on the safety leash and attach it to the foot if necessary.
Then all you have to do is put the paddle on the water, grab your paddle and get out.
You can even put 2 people on it! Test validated up to 120 kg and 2 people on board.
The paddle is very comfortable and easy to handle. It feels very light and pleasant if you want to move forward with a bit of speed.
All you have to do is enjoy it on the lake, river or sea...
Storage :
It deflates very easily. Then all you have to do is empty the air, remove the fin and store the equipment in its bag.
3) They tested the Supboard Protest by Lokahi for us
Stéphanie 30 (Engineer / tennis teacher): "Easy to inflate, once you've got the fin in the right direction, all you have to do is enjoy the paddle. Ideal for getting away from the beaches and enjoying the lake away from the crowded beaches".
Mathilde 30 ( Engineer / water sports enthusiast) : "A sensation of speed and lightness. A complete paddle with a pleasant paddle. We like its feminine look.
