I got to try the paddle of the Kober-Moll Zombie on journeys up the course as zinc (class IV - V tributary of Vomano) and Vomano (class IV - IV +) both in Abruzzo rivers flowing into the eastern side of Gran Sasso.
This is the last born at Kober and is designed specifically for use wild water.
This is a paddle with a handle 195 45th torck carbon blades with diameters from 27 to handle fiberglass color files from the airfoil.
It 's a very beautiful object suitable for high current. As indicated by the initials, it is an EFC Entire Foam Core, which means that the inside of the blades is filled with a layer of foam that provides superior strength with an increase in total weight negligible: the blade weighs 1113 grams. Sure there are lighter models is the same house (eg the line High End Carbon) that of other houses.
However, those 80 to 100 grams of difference I have perceived only when I compared the weight very closely with other blades. In the river the weight difference is not so obvious. The top blade
conveys a sense of rigidity (thanks to the splendid neck) which is offset by a past not too hard. In fact it seems to take less water, but then comparing with other blades of tiplogia more to play, then the difference of surface you see and how.
The back of the blade is smooth and this makes the blade very fast in movimenti di sfilata e, assieme al profilo asimmetrico, molto veloce nell'estrazione.
Il manico sottile trasmette molta sensibilità (sembra di avere l'acqua in mano) e sicuramente massimizza la forza di trazione essendo più ergonomico alla biomeccanica della mano quando analizzata in fase di trazione.
Darei senza dubbio un 9 pieno come voto generale.
Queste le foto della pala.
Un caro saluto a tutti i canoisti.
