We create custom graphic dragon boat paddles for teams that want paddles matching their jersey, logo, team colors, race identity, or club brand. Custom paddles give teams a unified look on the water without giving up performance or durability. Since Hornet Watersports was founded in 2014, we have created custom-designed paddles for more than 100 teams worldwide. Our custom work includes club and team paddles, national and regional designs, co-branded association paddles, commemorative event products, and Hall of Fame paddles produced for Dragon Boat Canada.
