G’POWER is a prominent brand on the professional market of kayak paddles. The company was established in 2005 by Rafal and Piotr Glazewski who at the time were based in a small “GP” manufacturing plant established by Piotr in 1988, which was the precursor in the making of “wing blade” paddles in Middle-Eastern Europe.
In the beginning, both the company and the paddles were built by hand. Only from 2010 have we started in the incorporation of 3D modelling as well as precision CAD/CAM using our CNC milling machine. From then on the hand-made models were scanned in and modelled in 3D. Eliminating human error during manufacturing has allowed us to mass produce paddles.
During the beginning years, the company mainly focused on Sprint paddles, however after only 3 years we started to branch out into Slalom paddles as well as Dragon Boat paddles. Today, we offer paddles for Kayak Polo, Stand Up, Outrigger or even Freestyle.
In 2015 the company moved to a modern manufacturing building increasing the companies’ capability and raw production power.
