The Ultimate Guide to BOTE Paddles: Pick Your Weapon

Not all paddles are created equal. Some are built for speed, some for power, and some for the pure joy of cruising. At BOTE, we don’t do “one-size-fits-all.” Whether you’re standing tall on your SUP, switching to kayak mode, or getting your little grom on the water, we’ve got a paddle that fits your style.

From the OG Axe Paddles to the new hybrid line that flips between SUP and kayak with ease, this is your no-BS guide to picking the perfect paddle.
