An inexpensive kayak paddle under $100 might seem like the attractive way to go. When looking for a paddle, think about how much you are going to use it. You will probably use your paddle every time you use your kayak, which is why we highly recommend purchasing a good quality, lightweight paddle. The paddle is one of the most important pieces of a kayaker's equipment. Your kayak paddle is how you move your boat through the water. Paddles made of lightweight carbon fiber and/or fiberglass can save you a lot of energy on your paddling adventures. During a typical kayak trip you'll paddle thousands and thousands of strokes. Think, just a few ounces could save you a lot of effort when you factor in the energy consumed simply moving a heavier paddle. Bent Shaft kayak paddles are also an option to consider. They help improve the ease of holding on to the kayak paddle. Additionally, bent shaft kayak paddles are considered ergonomic as they reduce wrist fatigue by improving your natural position.
