The Sawyer Kamea QuickDraw Adjustable SUP Paddle combines the natural beauty of laminated Western Red Cedar with the durability and forgiving flex of fiberglass construction. Designed for recreational stand-up paddleboarding, the tubular fiberglass shaft provides a comfortable feel that helps reduce strain on wrists and shoulders compared to stiffer carbon paddles.

Materials & Construction
QuickDraw Lever Lock Adjustment
Sawyer's QuickDraw system features a streamlined Lever Lock adjustable T-grip that allows paddlers to change paddle length quickly without tools. The 70"–86" adjustment range makes it easy to customize paddle length for different users and paddling positions.
Tubular Fiberglass Shaft
The fiberglass shaft provides a balance of strength, durability, and controlled flex. Compared to stiffer carbon shafts, fiberglass offers a more forgiving feel that can help reduce fatigue during extended recreational paddling sessions.
Reinforced Western Red Cedar Blade
The blade combines laminated Western Red Cedar with carbon fiber and fiberglass reinforcement. This construction preserves the natural appearance and feel of wood while adding composite strength for dependable on-water performance.
Dynel ToughEdge Protection
Dynel ToughEdge reinforces the blade perimeter to help protect against abrasion and everyday impacts. This durable edge treatment is particularly useful when launching, landing, or paddling in shallow water where the blade may contact rocks, gravel, or other surfaces.
11° Blade Offset
The 11° blade offset helps position the blade for an efficient forward stroke. This angle supports smooth blade entry and consistent power through the water, making it well suited to recreational stand-up paddleboarding.
