Ophion Glass Raptures one month review. I have been using Ophion paddles for a couple of years now and have found them to have a nice feel to them and plenty of power. So when I was asked to test their new cranked glass blade and glass shaft paddles, I was interested to see what they had to offer. The first thing I noticed was the colour, they were in my favourite shade of blue so was instantly off to a good start. The paddles are 191cm long on a cranked shaft and medium Rapture blade, this is the same as I have been using previously so took little time to adapt to and a back to back comparison was possible. The second thing I noticed was the glass crank no longer has the grip notch that I had liked on my own paddles, but which proved unpopular with some paddlers who tried them.
