Rowing Handles Rowing come with fixed wooden handles or adjustable carbon handles.
We have designed our rowing handles with comfort and ease of use as our highest priority. Selecting a handle that is correct for you is necessary to achieve the best performance. A handle that is too small will cause trouble in the rough water and may turn in the rower’s hand uncontrollably. A handle that is too big will fatigue the rower’s forearms and also result in excessive wrist movement feathering the oar.

We have designed our sculling handles with comfort and ease of use as our highest priority. Selecting a handle that is correct for you is necessary to achieve the best performance. A handle that is too small will cause trouble in the rough water and may turn in the rower's hand uncontrollably. A handle that is too big will fatigue the rower's forearms and also result in excessive wrist movement feathering the oar. All our sculling handles come fitted with our injection moulded thermoplastic grips. These second-generation grips have gained universal acceptance since their release and all include an anti-bacterial agent to stop the growth of bacteria and fungus. From the initial work that we have done, there seems to be a strong correlation between hand size (measured from the base of the thumb and the tip of the fingers) and preferred grip size. We have collected enough data so that we are now able to print a simple chart relating hand size to grip size for sculling and rowing. This will enable coaches to order the most suitable handles, particularly for school rowers.
Sculling Oars can be fitted with either Carbon adjustable handles or fixed wooden handles.

Surf Handles...
We have designed our surf handles with comfort and ease of use as our highest priority. We have standard timber and carbon handles available on all surf oars. Recently we have released two sizes in our carbon handle range. The carbon handles have been largely accepted since their release for numerous reasons; they are strong, stiff and thinner than the timber handle. The carbon handle is extremely easy to replace if broken or damaged. All carbon handles are fitted with a blue foam rubber, which contains an anti-bacterial agent that last for the life of the rubber. The sanitising process is effective against a large number of bacteria and fungi.
