{"product_id":"hydro-synergy-x","title":"Black Project Hydro Synergy-X Paddle","description":"\u003cp\u003eOffering a greatly enhanced paddling experience, the Hydro SynergyX empowers you to achieve increased board speed, maintain a higher paddling cadence, and paddle for extended durations. In partnership with world champions Seychelle Webster and Arthur Arutkin, and drawing inspiration from the success of the Hydro series, this new Black Project paddle has been meticulously tuned to dominate middle and long distance races. To achieve a combination of race winning speed and endurance, the blade has been optimized for efficiency. With a moderate blade angle of 10°, a narrower entry, and thinner blade profile, each paddle stroke is effortlessly smooth with an easy catch. The wider blade shoulders and medium depth Power Scoop give the option to increase power if needed during competitive racing or higher intensity paddle workouts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePADDLE INFO\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003ca class=\"elementor-toggle-title\" tabindex=\"0\"\u003eModerate 10° Blade Angle: \u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ca class=\"elementor-toggle-title\" tabindex=\"0\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003ca class=\"elementor-toggle-title\" tabindex=\"0\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Hydro SynergyX has a moderate 10° blade angle results an easier catch, with a smooth paddle entry, slightly more forgiving feel, and increased comfort for longer distances.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTour Carbon - Oval Taper Shaft:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe all-new Tour Carbon shaft series is a key component of the Hydro SynergyX that brings reduced weight, added power, responsiveness, grip, and comfort.

The oval-shaped middle-grip area provides a directional feel and a secure grip with a natural carbon-textured matte finish. Our lightest, most responsive shafts are built with 30T carbon.
