Handi-Paddle “Confort Paddle”

Description

 

Developed at the request of several presidents of stand-up paddle associations and clubs, the “Confort Paddle” is a versatile board designed for people with balance issues or limited mobility, allowing them to safely experience the joys of paddling.

Extremely stable, the “Confort Paddle” is equipped with an innovative system of stabilizing floats that are adjustable in width and connected by carbon tubes. These floats can be installed at the front and/or rear to enhance stability, offering complete modularity to suit the paddler’s needs. This gives you the option to use the board without floats, with a single set, or with two sets for optimal stability.

The deck is specially designed to accommodate both independent adaptive paddlers and those requiring assistance. Specific mounting points allow for the attachment of wheelchair wheels, such as those on the “Hippocampe” model, or any other non-motorized wheelchair. Thanks to our custom design, we can offer solutions tailored to everyone’s needs.

The board can be customized with your association’s or community’s colors and logos, ensuring a unique identity on the water. Its sturdy, rigid construction using high-quality composite materials guarantees durability and performance. It comes standard with a central fin box and three handles for easy transport.

This paddleboard is suitable for various types of disabilities and is fully compatible with the Hippocampe wheelchair (not included), allowing you to secure the wheelchair directly to the board via dedicated anchor points. Whether used alone or accompanied, the Confort Paddle adapts to your needs.
