OCEANBROAD Kayak Paddle 230CM/90.5 Inches Alloy Shaft Kayaking Boating Oar with Paddle Leash, 1 Paddle

I love these paddles!At first I thought the whole thing was metal (yes I had read the description:) and then realized that the paddles are a very sturdy plastic, nicely curved for more powerful strokes. The part that you grip is covered with something that is kind to your hands, doesn't feel cold to the touch and seems softer than the rest of the metal bar.Another thing I like is the ability to change the angle of the paddles by switching to a different hole where they connect.I'm very happy with my purchase!

This kayak paddle features a sturdy aluminum handle that snaps together tighter than most. It floats well until you have a chance to retrieve it. I had a chance to use this paddle in a river, marsh, beach, mouth of the bay, and creek. It held up very nicely. The paddle ends are very firm, I purposely beached myself on sand and stone, and was able to use this paddle to push me back into the current . It displaces water well, and keeps you tracking fairly straight. Each handle has a soft wrap to prevent blisters, and provide more grip. Paddle ends include water dripping prevention. Similar to Field & Stream plastic/aluminium paddle from sporting good's stores, but blade is much better. It is a budget paddle, not meant for multiple day trips, races, and professional use. That being said, it holds up well, and feels great after all day use. The design and logo is sleek and simple. I will purchase additional products and paddles from Oceanbroad.

Great paddle for the price! Comes with a leash you can hook to your PFD and it’s very nice.

Needed this for use in a kayak. Very well made. Strong but lightweight. Can come apart and put back together. Came well packaged and on time.

I have used this paddle several times sea kayaking since I received it and I'm very happy with the quality of it. Packaging was also very good upon receiving it. I will purchase this brand again.

I love the design already & how the sturdy the product seems. I adjusted everything so suit the correct width of my hands very easily and I’m ready to take it out on my birthday coming up!Product is very well made.

Just received this paddle. I was wondering if it had padded hand grips. It does. Not thick pads, but something to soften holding onto the aluminum rod. Paddle angle has 3 adjustable positions. I am pleased with the quality. I would recommend this for basic kayaking.

Fine paddle for the price, nothing special. One thing I noticed is that the paddle is not straight even when the notches are aligned in the straight position. It's just slightly off but enough to notice during use.
