Bending Branches

We build paddles for recreational enthusiasts who value every minute they spend on the water. It's no coincidence that some of the finest canoe paddles made come from a small factory located in the north woods of Wisconsin. After all, many of the people who work in the factory not only have a passion for paddles, they have a passion for paddling. This passion shows in the innovative paddle designs we bring to the market. It's in the five different kinds of wood we hand-select, assemble and shape for every paddle that runs through our factory floor in Osceola, WI It's in the meticulous attention to details we apply to every step of our handcrafted production process. Just as important, it's in the way we support our paddles. The effort we put into serving those who sell and those who use them. It is this passion that has carried us to a leadership position in the paddling world. We feel fortunate to be in this business, and we're committed to doing everything necessary to be a valued resource for you. See you on the water! As the world's largest manufacturer of quality canoe and kayak paddles, we remain a privately held company in Northwestern Wisconsin staffed by paddling enthusiasts. This translates into countless hours spent designing, prototyping, testing, and perfecting each of our paddles. And when that's done, we go back and look at ways to build them even better. Lighter, stiffer, smarter, more durable, and more beautiful. Our customers have found our paddles to be their long-term companions on adventures, both short and long. 1982 Outdoor and sporting goods company £££
