The Loom

Highest quality 100% carbon fibre roll wrap lay-up.

Unique “Twill” double-wrap carbon fibre overlays to the areas of maximum stress along the loom so providing addition strength without incremental weight.

Loom construction has focused specifically upon achieving a stiff carbon shaft of exceptional lightness and impact resistance.

 

The Spoons

Constructed with a high density epoxy foam core.

Biaxial, unidirectional carbon fibres cured in epoxy resin with a minimal amount of E-glass fibres.

Epoxy gel-coat hard finish to professional competition yacht standards.

Spoons can be spray finished to any colour and with competitors club or sponsor logo design. Please request quotations for spraying and club logos on application with order.

There is the option of a highly advanced competitive spoon in any of the options, made from 100% carbon which provided maximum stiffness with less deflection. Prices are available on request depending upon type of spoon.

Fixed Wooden Handles

Xcell recommend sweep oars with fixed handles as adjustable handles can loose power as efficiency is reduced through the lateral movement at the point of the adjustable handle connection.

Adjustable handles can however be supplied upon request.
