I am going to make sup paddle out of wood and wanted to add a adjustable length shaft . Thought about a adjustable ferrule to add with a palm grip or I can make a grip . Just can’t seem to locate some one that sells just the ferrules. Also like to add one to a canoe paddle.
Thanks
Jeremy
CLC, maybe
CLC sells carbon fiber and stainless ferrules: http://www.clcboats.com/shop/products/boat-gear/kayak-paddles/kayak-paddle-ferrule.html
They’re not length adjustable. I’ve never seen a length-adjustable ferrule for sale.
There is another decent source of carbon fiber ferrules, but, I can’t remember it.
Check Ebay, to get an idea
For an adjustable length, they have one that adjusts from 74 to 82". Search SUP paddle or Transformer SUP paddle. You might be able to adapt a wooden shaft and carbon tube to something similar.
If nothing else it’s worth visiting just for the young lady in the bikini. Sorry I want to ba a dirty old man when(if)I grow up.
