Traditional hard paddles with rigid straps can cause shoulder impingement, pinching, and discomfort — especially during high-volume pull sets. The SOFpaddle's soft SILFORM construction flexes naturally with your hand movement, reducing joint stress while still delivering meaningful resistance. No more clipping yourself or a lane-mate with a hard-edged paddle. Sizing Guide A snug fit is recommended for best performance. If you're between sizes, size down. The SOFpaddle is available in Small, Medium, and Large.
