Those who pay close attention to boat weight and packability will also make a likewise choice with the paddle. The Anfibio Fly has a minimum weight of just 480g making it an ideal ultra-light companion. It can be broken down into five segments none longer than 49cm so can be easily stored in any daypack. The minimalist features of the Anfibio Fly make it very unique and special.
Features
The length of the paddle is freely adjustable from 178cm to 210cm making the paddle suitable for adults of any size, but also children. Furthermore, the angle of the paddle blades can be set at any angle, so making the Fly adaptable to all preferences.
Material
The 24mm diameter fiberglass shaft offers minimal flex and a warm, secure grip. The nylon blades have some flexibility, yet making them durable enough against moderate contacts with rocks or river beds.
Use
The minimised blade surface still offers adequate propulsion in calm and free-flowing waters, such as open lakes and slow rivers. Best for touring with light luggage and for ultralight boats like Anfibio Nano SL, Anfibio Nano RTC or Anfibio Alpha XC. The Anfibio Fly is also well suited as a light, easily packable and inexpensive replacement or back up paddle and as a pole for a tarp shelter.
Note
The Fly paddle is not meant for whitewater, strong currents, heavy wind, big, open water or tours with heavy luggage (such as loading bikes).
Alternative
Have a look for the
Vertex Tour Paddle with a larger blade surface and still being very lightweight (890g).
Note
A
paddle leash (add on) is only recommended for open water and currents without any class of white water, as well as for securing the paddle when landing and pausing.
