You don’t need to add anything to a paddle.
Until repeated contact starts marking an expensive blade, or the bare shaft is not giving you the grip and control you want.
RSPro Paddle Essentials solve those two specific problems with very little material: protect the edge and improve the grip.
Protect the paddle edge
The blade edge is the part most exposed to contact with boards, docks, rocks and other hard surfaces. Paddle Edge Saver adds a thin elastic protective layer where those impacts happen first.
Improve shaft grip without bulk
Paddle Grip Hexa uses HexaTraction technology to add grip around compatible paddle shafts without turning the handle area into a thick foam grip.
It is designed for straight shaft sections up to 9.5 cm in perimeter. It is not suitable for tapered shafts, and oval shafts should be checked carefully before installation.
The honest trade-off
Both products add material to a paddle that can technically be used without them. They exist for paddlers who prefer to protect high-value equipment and improve grip before wear or handling becomes a problem.
Proven in real use
“I love your products! I just bought my 9th paddleboard for surfing and I put rspro rail savers on all my boards! I also use you hexatraction pads as well as the paddle grip on my paddle.”
