The Stendy is not for everyone, but I use one and I like it. The ball grip is quite comfortable and very functional in that it is always lined up with the blade. The handle is made of foam and fiberglass, and it may ding your board if you fall on it hard enough (But any paddle will ding your board.) The quick-twist adjust system works well for me. The eight-inch blade provides plenty of power for me and is great for my son. The Stendy is available in your local sup store or online at c4waterman.com. Check for the C4’s next demo day and come try one out.

I bought a C4 Stendy Adjustable paddle at Go Bananas. At first, it seemed like an OK paddle; however, after using it a few times, I noticed A LOT of faults.

- HUGE yellow ball hand is wood and will ding your board.
- Paddles does NOT paddle well. Very weak.
- Too much flex and doesnt “PULL” water when paddling.
- Too much of a beginner/kiddie paddle. Not for adults.

I paddled it once last week. I’ve been using a very narrow cut down blade on my paddle so this blade is larger than what I’m used to. I think it’s 8.25″ or so. From what I can tell it paddles very well.

The round handle is a bit weird at first but after a while it’s fine.

This paddle is very light. I think it may be lighter than the carbon one but didn’t weigh it.

The drain plug is cool because you can fill it with water and then shoot water out of it like a super soaker. It shoots pretty far.
