When expedition-level river running demands the most from your gear, the Surge delivers. This is Werner's full-sized whitewater kayak paddle built for larger, well-conditioned paddlers who need maximum power, a dependable catch, and the kind of structural integrity that holds up on multi-day wilderness runs far from any takeout.

The full-sized fibreglass blade offers Werner's largest whitewater blade surface area, and the increased blade-to-shaft offset positions it more vertically through the power phase for cleaner, more efficient strokes. A custom low-profile reinforcement spine adds stiffness and blade strength while preserving the maneuverability needed when linking technical moves in succession. Dihedral keeps forward paddling smooth and controlled regardless of conditions.

Werner's high-impact Bomber fibreglass layup is what sets the Surge apart for expedition use. It has been tested by some of the world's best expedition paddlers on remote, demanding rivers where gear failure is not an option. The Blaze HD Graphic finish is high-visibility by design, a practical and sensible choice for serious moving water. Stocked at Frontenac Outfitters in 30-degree right-hand feather. Custom lengths, offsets, and small shaft configurations are available with a 4 to 8 week lead time. Call or email us for details.
