To celebrate the ongoing partnership, the best-selling Blackfish Crozon paddle gets a gets a unique ROAM Projects edition, featuring Greg Wingo's distinctive signature branding.

The limited-edition Crozon x ROAM Projects paddle brings together two names with a shared passion for adventure, endurance and life on the water. The collaboration follows the partnership between Blackfish Paddles and ROAM Projects, with Blackfish becoming the official paddle partner for ROAM Projects events.

Founded by Greg Wingo, ROAM Projects is behind some of the most demanding endurance challenges in paddlesports, including the iconic Last Paddler Standing and Great Alabama 650.

Greg Wingo said: 

“I'm thrilled that the ROAM x Blackfish Andaman paddles were a huge hit and sold so well! I couldn't be more excited to continue this relationship between the two brands with the new ROAM Crozon paddles available for this year. The quality and attention to detail that Blackfish puts into their paddle design is second to none, and this new paddle is no exception!"

The partnership comes at an especially timely moment, with Blackfish’s Peter Allen preparing to take on the Great Alabama 650 - one of the toughest challenges in paddling. Known as America’s longest solo paddle race, the event covers 650 miles along the Alabama Scenic River Trail, with competitors facing a 10-day completion limit.

For Peter, the choice of paddle is already familiar territory: the Crozon is his go-to paddle. Designed by combining the best elements of the Andaman, Salish and Nootka, the Crozon is a versatile, user-friendly paddle with a stable feel and efficient catch. 

Peter Allen, General Manager of Blackfish Paddles, endurance paddler and racer, said: 

“The Crozon is the most versatile paddle in our quiver and has quickly become a favourite among our Blackfish team athletes, including Bruce Kirkby. It’s also my personal choice - stable, efficient and smooth in the water, especially when every paddle stroke counts.” 

Built for long training days, racing, downwind sessions and touring, it is at home on any endurance and ultra endurance paddle challenge. 

To celebrate the launch, Blackfish is offering a free Blackfish Paddle Bag – ROAM Edition with every Crozon x ROAM Projects paddle purchase. Complete with a shoulder strap and adjustable design to accommodate different paddle lengths, the bags are practical for both transport and storage.

Quantities are limited, and the offer runs until 31 August 2026 or while stocks last.
