What Our Customers Are Saying

Customers from all over the world are choosing Z & J Paddles as their paddle of choice. Will you?

Highly recommend.

“I bought this paddle after trying a friend's. It is very lightweight and strong. A game changer - I love it. Also great that it comes with a non-slip grip. Highly recommend this. A few members of our team also bought this paddle.” 

Remarkably light.

“Seller was very communicative and responsive--offered me personal options to expedite my shipment, which met my race needs. Paddle and bag arrived in perfect condition, ahead of schedule, and paddle feels remarkably light. Very happy with purchase!” 

Slices through the water.

This is so light and able to really dig into the water. I can literally hear my blade slicing through the river. I absolutely love this.”

Affordable yet premium quality.

“I have been paddling since the 90’s and this is the 1st time I’ve used a CF paddle during a race. This paddle is just plain awesome, well constructed and very sturdy. Not too light nor heavy and well balanced. There are a lot of CF paddle out there and would cost you an arm and a leg. This CF paddle is well priced and not to mention it came with a free bag! This CF paddle will be seeing a lot of action in the years to come! Oh by the way, this CF paddle is also good for digging GOLD in the Division A Race! Thanks Z & J!
