good option for the priceAugust 19, 2008 I bought this to use with an inflatable kayak, and I think it's a good paddle. It's a little heavy, but I'm not going long distances or trying to break any records, so for my use, it's fine. The length is ideal for the wider sides of an inflatable. It's got several click-in settings so you can pick the alignment of your blades. Nice comfy handles and drip guards. For the money, it's a great, sturdy paddle.
NOT AS ADVERTISEDJuly 26, 2008 I am the second reviewer to note that this paddle is NOT AS ADVERTISED. This paddle is 84 inches long, not 92 as advertised. DO NOT ORDER THIS PADDLE unless you want an 84" (7') paddle.
Wrong Size...Not 92 inches, it is 84 inches...July 25, 2008 Both the weight and blade are OK (for the price), but the name says 92". The one I got was only 84", probably fine for some shorter paddlers.
For the record, this was written by Gary Moos, Julie's husband.
Good value for beginnerJuly 23, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
As my experience with kayaking is limited to quiet, pleasurable "lake" tours, I've no need to invest in an expensive paddle. The Kwik Tek is light, has different settings, hand grips and is comfortable to use. While I'm certainly no expert, it gets me where I'm going and the price was absolutely right! For me it was a great find and a great buy!
