The 3-piece Stream carbon from Jobe is inspired by nature and perfected for people. The new innovative shape of this paddle is based on one of nature's best paddlers: Ducks! The Stream paddle has a different tip on the blade, which makes it paddle more smoothly and efficiently. The slightly narrower tip of the paddle gives it a smaller surface area, which translates into less pressure on the arms at the beginning of the rowing movement. When the paddle gets closer to your body, the paddle has more surface area, which causes a lot of forward momentum. This paddle gives you more space to enjoy your surroundings instead of just overtaking!
