Meet the Catalyst, the new sustainable canoe paddle from Bending Branches. Handcrafted from remnants from first-quality paddles, Bending Branches is giving new life to what might have gone to waste. Not only is this paddle sparking change for Bending Branches and the paddle industry, we hope the Catalyst sparks change in your own community. $5 from every paddle purchased will be donated to American Rivers non-profit. With full Rockgard coverage and a 2 oz. fiberglass wrap, this paddle's durability exceeds industry set blade strength testing standards.
