Paddleboard (SUP)
Medium, large and XL blades. One, two or three-piece options.
A blade designed to work with the water, not against it
FLOWFORCE didn’t begin as a paddle. It began with marine propulsion, understanding how water moves around hulls, propellers and rudders. We applied those same principles of hydrodynamics to human-powered propulsion and asked a simple question: could a paddle blade be designed to work with the water, rather than simply push against it?
Here’s what we found. A conventional paddle is essentially a solid blade. As it enters the water, pressure builds rapidly across its surface. That pressure creates propulsion, but it also creates a sudden peak load, felt through the shoulders, elbows, wrists and torso. Repeat that hundreds, even thousands, of times in a session and the physical demand adds up.
When more effort is spent managing load, less of it is being used to move you forward. FLOWFORCE takes a different approach, managing water flow and pressure across the stroke so the load builds more progressively. The catch feels softer, the blade remains stable and power is delivered more smoothly, helping you maintain performance with less strain.
Every blade uses the same slit technology, tuned to the stroke of the sport.

Rather than letting pressure build unevenly across the blade, the slits manage the pressure field throughout the stroke. The result is a smoother, more progressive loading profile, one that most paddlers notice on the first stroke.
The catch feels softer. The blade stays stable. The drive feels more controlled. And the blade continues to generate effective forward propulsion.
FLOWFORCE wasn’t developed by trial and error. The technology uses the same physics as applied in our marine and aviation divisions.
We asked paddlers across SUP, kayak, canoe, rowing, dragon boat and outrigger to put FLOWFORCE against the equipment they already know and trust. Across disciplines and experience levels, the feedback has been remarkably consistent: a smoother, more comfortable stroke, without compromising performance.
For performance: paddlers and rowers describe being able to maintain their effort for longer, holding rhythm and cadence deeper into training sessions, endurance paddles and races.
For the everyday paddle: the difference is just as relevant. Testers describe a softer, more stable stroke, less strain through the upper body and more time on the water before fatigue begins to take over.
Different sports. Different paddlers. A remarkably consistent experience.
Reported by testers across multiple paddle sports


FLOWFORCE wasn’t developed through trial and error.
Before prototypes were manufactured, major design iterations were analysed using Computational Fluid Dynamics.
The research examined:
The simulations were used to identify configurations that improved driving force during dynamic operation.
