How to choose the right adjustable paddle

Choose Aluminum Clamp if you want the lightest Sting+ setup. The Clamp model weighs approximately 16 oz, uses a 100% carbon handle, adjusts from 45 in to 51 in, and is adjusted with a hex Allen key wrench at the clamp mechanism.

Choose Leverlock if you want faster, tool free length adjustment. Lift the lever built into the handle, adjust the paddle length, and lock it back into place. The Leverlock model weighs approximately 20 oz, adjusts from 43 in to 51 in, and uses a carbon and plastic handle construction.

The simple tradeoff is weight versus convenience. Clamp is lighter. Leverlock is easier to adjust without a tool.
