Werner - Kalliste 2PC Straight Carbon

[ kuh - list - uh ]

The Kalliste lives up to its name. This is Werner's most refined low-angle touring kayak paddle, built for paddlers who want maximum efficiency on long days across open water, coastal routes, or Canadian lake crossings.

The full carbon blade construction keeps swing weight genuinely low, and the buoyant blade design creates a light, effortless feel through each stroke. The smooth back face enters and exits the water cleanly and quietly, reducing flutter and giving you that connected, confident feel that keeps fatigue at bay over long distances. Dihedral blade geometry channels water evenly off both faces, which is a core part of how Werner builds stability and consistency into every forward stroke.

The Kalliste is built for serious touring, but it's not fragile. Dynel composite edge reinforcement adds real impact and abrasion resistance, making it a better fit for rocky shorelines and rugged paddling conditions than Werner's Ovation model. The Smart View Adjustable ferrule delivers a rock-solid two-piece connection with precise feather angle settings and no snag points to catch your gear. Available in standard and small diameter shaft options so the fit works for your hands, not just your blade.
