The Pack-Tour M is born of the versatile needs of pack raft paddlers. Our 4-piece system easily breaks down to stow away when your pack raft is deflated and your journey finds you back on your feet. Requested by you, the pack rafter, an adjustable shaft system allows for on the go length changes for the variety of conditions you'll face on the trail. The design and construction is light weight, while rugged and ready to be tested along with the will to keep pushing forward. Our meticulous, handcrafted construction has been made famous by our production team in Sultan, WA and gives you confidence as you push deeper into your mission. The Pack-Tour M is designed for those looking to paddle open water and tighter moving water streams and rivers. Although strong for its intended use, this is not a whitewater paddle.

- Our streamlined adjustable shaft changes paddle length from 200cm to 215cm or 210cm to 225cm with a simple, tight fitting system. Adjust lengths for open water or tighter moving water rivers and streams.
- Premium Performance gives you the right combination of light weight, stiffness and durability. Fibreglass blades and carbon shaft keep weight to a minimum, for when counting ounces is a priority.
