Why G'Power
Slalom demands paddles that survive continuous gate contact and rock impacts while staying light enough for 90-second sprint runs. The Revolution ELITE weighs 490–540 g with metal tips on both blad corners. Five blad sizes (XS–XL) let Fox fine-tune blad resistance for different course profiles.
The INOX steel edges on the Spider ELITE and Revolution ELITE protect the blad from gate poles and rocks. A broken blad during a run costs the athlete time and control.
Equipment Specs
- C1 paddle: Revolution ELITE — 490–540 g, 695–806 cm² blad area, metal tips
- K1 paddle: EXTREME — concave grooves for aerated elvepadling grip
- Shaft: 28 mm carbon fiber, matched stiffness for slalom technique
