Description

The Backwater Assassin Carbon Fiber Hybrid Paddle, is the full-size version of its legendary predecessor, the Assault Hand Paddle, designed for form and function. Weighing in at 38 ounces, the Assassin Paddle adjusts from 230-240 cm, providing unsurpassed performance and versatility with the patented hook and teeth blade design and raised graphics package. The hook is great for grabbing a line in the water, pulling in decoys, pulling you closer to the dock, or making a tree limb easier to reach. The oversized blade helps to pull a lot of water when paddling and makes turning even easier. The unique blade design allows kayakers more freedom, more comfort and more confidence to challenge themselves and was designed for both high angle and low angle paddlers. The shaft is made of a carbon hybrid material to help reduce the overall weight and the oversized ABS injected nylon blade is hard enough to push off on any surface and not crack or flex. Is your lure stuck in a tree? No problem, just grab the branch. Too close to the rocks or oyster shells? No problem, just give a push. Specifications: Length: 94.5 in / 240.03 cm, Shaft Type: Carbon fiber hybrid material, Blade Material: ABS Injected Nylon, Weight: 38 oz / 1077.28 g,

  • Great paddle!
Size: 98.5"-102.5"
Love this paddle—2nd one purchased. This paddle is comfortable to use even for extended trips. Light weight, adjustable length and feathering. Very strong for pushing off rocks and the teeth give a better grip on shallow shore push offs. I was able to rescue a fishing pole from the creek bottom with the hook, so the paddle paid for itself too. ... show more

  • Excellent paddle Excellent paddle
Size: 98.5"-102.5"
Sick paddle? Great quality, tough, great value, full carbon fiber shaft, nice adjustable shaft, paddles excellent. I got mine in 250-260 size. Now the only downside to the style of the paddle itself is the "hook" feature. Not blaming the paddle or taking any stars away but it was very difficult to paddle through bull kelp while ocean fishing. The hook feature kept getting tangled up and it was difficult to get free. Other than that excellent paddle. Light weight also and looks mean👍 ... show more

  • Wish i would have gotten this sooner
Size: 98.5"-102.5"
Wish i would have gotten sooner. I'm 6'2" , and this thing makes a night and day difference for me, i have a Old town PDL 120 , but i like to fish some pretty heavy vegetation. (The PDL Drive don't work in weeds very well) The carbon fiber feels so nice on the hands, and its super light compared to my old one. The length makes such a big difference and is so much less exhausting to paddle with. Clips together tightly, and i have been using it to push off at the launch. Love it, will update this review if anything changes. ... show more

  • $158 POS
Size: 98.5"-102.5"
Can't even put the 2 pieces together properly without losing screws. Can get one screw to stay in place, but not the second. With I would have paid attention to the country of origin, and I would have probably suspected as much.

  • Kayaking Multi-Tool! 💦
Size: 98.5"-102.5"
I bought this paddle to replace one of the cheap included paddles that comes with the Intex Excursion Pro inflatable kayak. It’s night and day difference how good this paddle is in comparison to the old paddle. It feels really solid in the hand, with next to no flex in the carbon fiber shaft. The blades are very handy for use in the rivers we frequent too which was one of the bigger reasons I bought this paddle. Our rivers are tidal so they can be very low and very high in the same day. That translates to me potentially pushing off of the rocky riverbed in unpredictable times, or rocks that may be submerged at some point, later being exposed. The serrated kayak blade really makes a difference for me in my application and I love having it. Also the hook on top is a pretty cool thing too, not that I use it all the time or anything but it’s a nice feature. I’ve used it to grab onto overhanging tree branches and pull in or stop periodically as needed. It’s like having an extension of your arm, and I don’t feel that there is any sort of weird drag or anything from the cutout. Im absolutely loving this paddle so far, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a solid upgrade from their cheap included paddles or from their old paddle in general. ... show more

  • Light weight and extremely sturdy Light weight and extremely sturdy
Size: 98.5"-102.5"
The Backwater Assassin paddle is exactly what I wanted. I can use the hook to grab my kid's boats and bring them in when needed, grab branches to "anchor" and fish and the serrated edge is awesome for pushing off and holding the kayak still. I am a large man and paddle a tandem kayak configured for one person most of the time. I would definitely buy this again. ... show more
