Thanks for the good review! Will you be reviewing the 2017 Magma & Thrive? I'm really looking forward to buy one this summer and i haven't seen any reviews or unboxings of them. Hope you will give us a review on them as well ! Keep the good work, greetings from Germany
Maximilian Helmer Yes we will have flat water and small surf reviews for the Magma and Thrive on our RUclips page by the end of next week thanks for your kind words I can tell you both are great boards the Magma being the most stable of the two of them
Hi Myronas you are correct a two-piece paddle should be stronger than a 3 piece paddle simply because there are less joins in the paddle shaft from which the paddle can break, that said most carbon composite 3 piece paddles are extremely strong. The reason for a 3 piece paddle over a 2 piece paddle is that it simply packs down to a much shorter length making it much easier to travel with. Cheers Graham
Hello. Recently I bought the Magma and I love it. However, I bought it with the Carbon Guide paddle and the T-handle is not aligned with the blade, but it's twisted at an angle. This can't be normal, can it? Is there a way so I can fix it?
+Konstantinos K. Hi Konstantinos I would take the paddle back to the point of purchase and ask for a warranty asessment to be done. That way if the product has failed due to a manufacturing fault that meets the warranty criteria it will be replaced under warranty.
Thank you so much for your reviews on Aqua marina.. they were very helpful in deciding which board/paddle I should pick. Greetings from Amsterdam!
+Lijanne de Beus thank you very much we're glad to here are reviews are helpful

Isn't 3 piece a disadvantage over 2 piece paddles?
Thank's for the nice review
