Cosmetic Notice
The Black Opal Elongated is offered at a reduced price due to a minor cosmetic blemish found on the throat of the paddle face around the printed logos.
This is purely visual and has no impact on the paddle's performance, durability, construction, or tournament approval. Every paddle meets the same quality and performance standards expected of the Black Opal series and is covered by our standard warranty.
