The high modulus sculls that we introduced starting in 2001 were the RX, APEX-X, BBX and in 2005 the REX. This scull model type were offered to provide a scull that was light but had a balance point to fit the skill level and preference of each customer. The high modulus sculls are overall the lightest weight sculls offered on the market today and provide the best overall "swing weight" characteristics. On the recovery, lower "swing weight" results in far less energy usage and is especially helpful in reducing fatigue as the stroke rating goes up.
High Modulus Adjustable Length Sculls that come in adjustable length, your choice of 3 handle sizes, 3 grip types, the four blade types with the choice of three weights to tune the oar balance, with 3 levels of shaft stiffness and choice of average length/inboard with adjustment of +/- 5cm.
APEX-REX (2005): This is our latest addition to the high modulus family. This is a blade shape enhancement that is made from an existing RX blades. This is done here at the factory or can be done by the customer, so that you do not have to purchase a new set of sculls. We are only offering the design change on new Apex-RX sculls at the present time, because we do not have dedicated tooling at this time.
BBX (2004):A as result of the strong following of the BB2198, we made this in a high modulus version and it was used in the Olympics that year.
APEX-X (2003): A high modulus version of the popular APEX blade type. This is the second competitive blade design that couples the APEX 2000 blade shape with the new integrated scull design using the new scull shaft with high modulus carbon and carbon weave in its construction. The construction methods for the blade and handle have been modified as well to improve overall scull performance by allowing greater customization of the sculls. The blade comes in 3 weights to allow an adjustable balance point according to shaft stiffness, skill level, and rig. These sculls are offered with three handle sizes and five grip types.
APEX-RX (2002): This design incorporates the Dreher APEX R (Round) shape described below. This was the first of the new high modulus sculling oars and also had our latest blade design with a brand new integrated scull design. This scull design replaces the high performance boron enhanced scull shaft with new construction materials incorporating high modulus carbon and carbon weave in its construction. The construction methods for the blade and handle have been modified as well to improve overall scull performance by allowing greater customization of your scull. The blade comes in 3 weights to allow one to adjust the balance point according to shaft stiffness, skill level, and rig. These sculls are offered with three handle sizes and five grip types.
