Select Paddles

New SELECT products by SM COMPOSITE! Specialized in top of the range composite parts and endowed with an exclusive expertise in the composite field, we are glad to offer you our range of Select paddles!

Select is a world-famous brand, specialized in windsurfing. In 20 years, SELECT fins have become references in terms of performance and reliability, thanks to the SM COMPOSITE R&D. Our philosophy for these new products will be the same: to make the best products!

Since 1992, we have equipped most of the national teams of kayak lane race with our famous rudders for speed kayak K 1 K 2 K 4. We have won over 50 world and Olympic titles since the beginning of our commitment!

FEBRUARY 2002 : under control from world champion BABAK AMIR TAHMASSED and from athletes selected for former Olympic games, we decide to launch our first RUSH RACING. It took 18 months to validate the product and make this paddle a finalist product in the Olympic games!
Those 18 months spent in research and development were really beneficial in the technological field. We have developed new technologies which can be produced in complete autonomy by our production unit and this has motivated us to create a complete range of paddles!
The range of models we offer is now complete, from the world champion to the beginner, each paddle model has been studied, analyzed and tested at length, for this is the only way to ensure that a particular paddle is the most appropriate one!
In canoeing and kayaking, the PADDLE is the only propulsion means. It is, in a way, an extension of the hand! We spent a lot of energy to make high-performance products in order to make your trips agreeable!
Please discover our range, we probably have the paddle you’ve been expecting!

: Rudder Line; We have developed 6 new rudders : 3 racing rudders, 3 marathon rudders, with a brand new profile which offers both much more responsiveness at the helm and most of all, less drag.

: Choosing your Paddle; Several parameters must be taken into account when choosing the appropriate model of paddle which will make your trip a special moment. A good paddle must let itself be forgotten. It cannot, at anytime, create the least discomfort, either for the experienced paddler or for the occasional user. But it is hard for a paddle to let itself be forgotten by the beginner who has not acquired the smooth and relaxed movements yet. After a few trips, a good paddle corrects inaccurate movements and everything goes back to normal!
