Don’t know how kosher this is, but assuming y’all don’t follow the gear swap much, I have a Supai Olo Paddle, like new, for sale there. Thought you might want to know.

I think anything goes here. As a forum it’s not unlike an abandoned house: people wander from time to time, but mostly it’s vacant for one to do as they please.

I am unfamiliar with this paddle. I will check it out.

Anyone have experience with these paddles? I am curious how they do with smaller rapids. Seems like it just might be intended with flat water?

I bought one for paddling my Klymit LWD. The tubing is thin, and while the carbon fiber paddles seem to have reinforcement from the forked tubing, I’m not sure it’s really made for anything more than flat water.

That said, they are quite compact when broken down. I use mine for fly fishing hike-in lakes. No problems so far in that department.
