Power grip:

Does your hand slip on your paddle shaft? You have tried it all, but you still didn’t find the perfect thing for grip? Do you need a perfect grip forever? Here it is! POWER GRIP It is a part of the shaft (on hand control side), which is coated with special textured coat, that provides you with the ultimate grip surface. Your hand will never ever lose a grip on your shaft again!
