This paddle is just plain awesome, well constructed and very sturdy. Not too light nor heavy and well balanced. There are a lot of CF paddle out there and would cost you an arm and a leg. This CF paddle is well priced and not to mention it came with a free bag! This CF paddle will be seeing a lot of action in the years to come! Oh by the way, this CF paddle is also good for digging GOLD in the Division A Race! Thanks Z & J! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Really light paddle. Great value. *by on Reviewed in the United States June 30, 2016* So much lighter than my wood paddle for sure. I bought this before my first dragon boat race, and it made a big difference in my paddling -- especially since I'm a newbie (less than a year paddling). I don't get tired much with this baby. I can focus on my technique instead of the weight of my paddle. It may not have the big brand name, but it's good quality. Does not look cheap. And doesn't cost $200 either. I think this is great for beginners who don't want to spend much money, but want a lightweight paddle. A great value. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Dragon Boat Paddle *by on Reviewed in the United States March 16, 2026* I finally got my paddle. It is great quality and was a great value. It feels great and paddle better. I recommend this paddle to anyone. ## Frequently Bought Together - Z&J SPORT Dragon Boat Paddle Carbon Fiber, IDBF Approved Paddle with T Handle for Dragon Boat Paddler, Full Carbon Dragon Boat Paddles for Dragon Boat Team - Z&J SPORT Bag for Dragon Boat Paddle/One paddle/Team Paddle/Space/Saving/Large Capacity/Adjustable Shoulder Strap/Carry Handle - Hornet Watersports Silicone Grip Tape for Kayak, Canoe and Dragon Boat Paddles --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/29789011-dragon-boat-paddle-carbon-fiber-idbf-approved-paddle-with-t](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/29789011-dragon-boat-paddle-carbon-fiber-idbf-approved-paddle-with-t) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-08-20*
