The Player, developed alongside its larger counterpart the Side Kick, was a major innovation to play boaters by setting the standard with downturned blades. This Werner design innovation gives immediate directional control in rudder and draw strokes, for surfing or setting up todays’ most advanced tricks. On the wave or throwing down river, we’re along for the ride.
The Player is a great play boating paddle. I have paddle it extensively on the Ottawa and have been really happy with its performance. I have also done a lot of creaking and river running with it, while that's not what is was design for given the situation it preformed well. Its very durable and has withheld several blows against rocks.
