The Challenge 85 has a lightweight, all-carbon shaft with a 10° bend to provide low swing weight and a slight shaft flex for a very comfortable performance. Its epX engineered polymer blade has enhanced stiffness and strength thanks to its carbon-fiber reinforcement. The blade has an aggressive dihedral down its spine for a smooth, forgiving forward stroke. The Challenge’s overall black color makes it an ideal color match for virtually every SUP board.

• Blade width: 8.5". Blade length: 16.5". Blade surface area: 100 sq in. Weight: 28 oz
