Description
Our NAJA slalom blades are a brand new exciting design which incorporates an extreme off-centre in relation to the axis of the shaft (8mm).
This feature coupled with the profile of the NAJA blade enhance the blades stroke performance.
So much so - Vavřinec Hradilek decided to change his paddle on the basis of the results of testing for only a few days before the first olympic nomination race. He won the selection and went to Beijing. He said : “Since the time I made the first stroke with NAJA MAXI I had a feeling that I am at one with the water. Even if I know that the stroke is more powerful and demands more power I am feeling a greater freedom and speed in moving the boat. I can really rely on these blades during the race when you are accelerating from every single gate as a rocket! This is a fantastic feeling. "
