Consumer Reports

The Werner Trance 95 Performance thoroughly impressed us with its top-notch performance across the board in all of our tests. This paddle is designed carefully, and the details are all well-crafted with user-friendliness in mind. The lightest paddle in our test, with a carbon fiber shaft and blade, this model slices through the water. Plus, the highest-scoring adjustment system is easy to use and doesn't get in the way of paddling. 
However, it's worth mentioning the price here. This SUP paddle is one of the most expensive models we have tested to date and its premium price tag may put it out of most people's budgets. It's an undeniably excellent and high-performing paddle &mdash; our all-time favorite &mdash; and can be well worth the investment for SUP aficionados. For the casual paddler, though, it's a bit costly.
