Werner Kalliste

Lightweight Performance Touring Paddle

The Werner Kalliste's performance core blades have an exceptionally clean and efficient feel on the water and offer silky smooth strokes that make paddling all day long feel effortless. Foam Core Blades are more buoyant than standard blades and great for rolling.

The Kalliste is a great choice for kayakers who enjoy effortless touring, be that a quick hour on local waters or covering many miles on multi-day expeditions. The mid-size blades offer gentle power that increases gradually through the stroke and provides a smooth, easy feel while also providing plenty of acceleration and power if needed. Designed predominantly for low angle use, they also perform very well at the kind of higher angle strokes you might need on lively waters.

Available Shaft Types

Carbon Straight Shaft - The least expensive option with a carbon blend construction and the Smart View adjustment system. These paddles are fixed in length, but have feather angle adjustment in 15° increments. The smooth shaft feels familiar to most paddlers, allowing for easy hand movement along the shaft when you need to adjust your grip.

Carbon Adjustable Straight Shaft - The only fully adjustable shaft option with the Lever-Lock system and a carbon weave construction. This paddle can be extended or shortened between 240 - 260 cm in length. The Lever-Lock also allow for complete freedom when altering the feather angle of the blades.

Neutral Bent Shaft - The cranked shaft options offer increased hand contact with the shaft, offering better ergonomics and control. The bend in the grip naturally aligns your wrists, improving comfort while reducing strain and fatigue. These shafts are fitted with the Smart View adjustment system, offering 15° feather angle increments.
