The Rip Stick 89 is the answer to what stand up paddle surfers want. More power from a smaller blade. Smaller blade size means a higher cadence for bursts of speed, with a low-profile that won’t trip up when executing turns. To generate more power, Werner developed an innovative double concave dihedral in the power face of the blade. The power pockets created to accelerate into more waves, outrace outside sets and blast over foam piles. Along with more power the double concave shape of the blade face creates a super stable stroke, for all the crazy angles you find yourself paddling. Coupled with the unique 7 degree blade to shaft offset, softer overall flex and wide range of fit options, Werner now offers the surfer a paddle truly specific to the sport. Available in Straight 1 Piece ($309), Straight Performance Adjustable ($349) and Straight Performance Travel ($364).
