To produce the most valued kayak and canoe paddles in the world. To value our reputation for product quality and performance, friendly service, an leadership in our industry. To keep our workplace safe, support opportunities, and respect our employees. To build strong relationships with our customers and vendors. To never compromise our integrity. 2 - www.wernerpaddles.com WERNER.2001-3.1 4/28/01 12:35 AM Page 4 WernerWerner PhilosophyPhilosophy At Werner we believe that over-gripping the paddle shaft is one of the most common problems kayakers face. It causes the hands, arms, and joints to fatigue quickly, and over time may cause tendonitis or carpal tunnel syndrome. Over-gripping may be a subconscious effort to overcome a blade that flutters, shaft torque, or simply because a paddle is not sized properly. A well-designed paddle will allow a kayaker to lightly grip the shaft while pulling the blade through the water. WERNER PADDLES’ advanced design minimizes the gripping effort needed to control a paddle by incorporating special design features to create a smooth and sta- ble stroke. To reduce over-gripping due to blade flutter and shaft torque, Werner incorporates a dihedral power-face and the necessary amount of asymmetry into each blade design. Illustration 1 and 2 on the following page explains further how these design features work together to create a smooth and stable stroke, and reduce the need to over-grip your paddle.
