Effortless Cadence: The Blackfish Crozon
The Crozon stands out in the Blackfish lineup for its unique teardrop-shaped blade. While the Noumรฉa is built for raw, explosive power, the Crozon is designed for efficiency and versatility. It is a paddle that excels when the conditions get messyโwhether youโre dealing with side-chop, downwind bumps, or long-distance touring.
Developed in collaboration with Amandine Chazot, the Crozon is specifically engineered to allow for a higher stroke rate without the fatigue often associated with larger, more aggressive blades.
High-Performance Geometry
- Teardrop Blade Shape: The wider base of the blade ensures an immediate, powerful catch even if you don’t bury the paddle perfectly every time.
- Deep Power Face Concave: This “scooped” design provides a locked-in feel during the power phase, preventing the blade from wandering or twisting.
- Refined Thin Profile: The blade is remarkably thin, allowing it to enter and exit the water with minimal disturbance and zero “splash.”
Premium Construction & Eco-Ethics
Like all elite Blackfish gear, the Crozon is handcrafted using 100% Prepreg Carbon. This means you get a paddle that is not only incredibly light but also possesses a “tuned” flexโgiving you a spring-like return at the end of every stroke.
- Bio-Resin: Constructed with environmentally friendly resins, reducing the paddle’s carbon footprint without compromising strength.
- Seamless Rails: The carbon edges are designed to be smooth on your board’s rails while remaining impact-resistant.
- Ergonomic Grip: Comes with a comfortable carbon T-handle designed for long hours on the water.
Key Features:
- Versatility: Equally at home in a technical surf-race as it is on a 20km calm water cruise.
- Body-Friendly: The blade design and shaft flex are optimized to reduce stress on the shoulders and lower back.
- Eco-Friendly Packaging: Shipped in a reusable high-quality paddle sockโno single-use plastics.
Specifications:
- Blade Sizes: Available in multiple cmยฒ options to match your power profile.
- Shaft Type: High-modulus carbon with a balanced flex rating.
- Construction: Full Prepreg Carbon.
Who is it for? The Blackfish Crozon is the perfect match for paddlers who prefer a higher cadence (more strokes per minute) rather than heavy, slow power. Itโs an elite-level paddle for racers who want stability in rough water, and a luxury upgrade for touring enthusiasts who want the lightest weight possible.
