JANTEX LOCK RING
Posted at 01.07.2025
After several years of emphasizing the athlete's results in our news section, we will have a different aproach from now on and focus more on the new products or innovations we bring to the market and the valuable feedback we get from the international athletes during the season.
One of the innovations we introduced last season was the Lock Ring. A simple idea of a ring able to lock the angle and the length quickly became a very usefull tool for a wide range of paddlers, from surfski, marathon, downriver or sprint.
One year after, we decided to check with some of the top athletes paddling with it. Here's what they have to say:
Fernando Pimenta
“It's very usefull as a safety backup if something goes wrong with the clamp”.
“For marathon I use the Lock Ring to fix the minimum lenght and start the race 1cm longer. That way, it's easy for me to go down quickly and without troubles”.
Anna Pulawska:
“The Lock Ring system it’s a brilliant idea because you always have the same angle when you fold the paddle. For me, it's the perfect system when you're travelling frequently”.
Nejc Znidarcic:
“I've been using Jantex paddles for over 16 years and always believed they were perfect just the way they were. But last year, I had the chance to be one of the first athletes to test the new Lock Ring system, and I instantly fell in love with it”.
“Having the ability to quickly and precisely change the paddle length without losing your angle is crucial”.
Bernardo Pereira:
“It's a boost of confidence to be racing and shorten the lenght without even looking”
In any case, if you prefer to have total freedom during your paddling, the Lock Ring can easily be removed or just let loose.
Stay tuned for more on your favourite paddles.
