I've been a whitewater canoeist for over 30 years.  My wife and I bought our firtst raft 4 years ago and began to R-2.  We just couldn't find and good quality high performance paddle for rafting.  We wanted something more durable than the spoon blades we were using for canoeing.  Then I remembered the Norse paddles I once had.  My wife gave me that look when I ordered us a couple of raft paddles.  That look turned into a smile as soon as she dipped it in the river.

On every river from West Virginia south! The Upper Gauley, Big Water New, and big water Nolichucky, These sticks have gotten me out of holes, pushed me over waves, and saved numerous guests and me on countless trips!!!
Glad to see them rise back to life!

On the Upper Gauley it is me, the boat, my crew and my paddle against the best mother nature can throw out. For 21 years I've trusted only a Norse paddle. It's my first line of defense against big water. 

I guided on the New River in 2003, the epic water year.  I bought a Norse paddle, and I cannot count how many times my incredibly dependable paddle got me out of trouble.  I still own it, canoe and raft on a regular basis with it, and I would never dream of going into whitewater without it.  I am glad you are back, and I am getting another one!

I am the founder of Adventure Calls and have a gazillion miles on my Norse guide paddle. It has hit a lot of wet rocks and still in perfect shape.

By far the greatest raft guide paddle ever! With over 15 years of guiding it is the only paddle I would use.
