Durable, portable retractable paddle blade designed for reliable on-water performance Key benefits Long-lasting construction: Made from ABS for strength and resistance to deformation, so it holds up to regular use with minimal maintenance. Safety if dropped overboard: The paddle floats, reducing the risk of losing it and allowing you to stay focused on the activity. Better propulsion and control: Thickened blades increase contact with the water for improved thrust, speed, and handling. Adjustable to your needs: Telescoping handle extends from 56 cm to 106 cm, letting you quickly set the ideal length for different users and boat types. Compact transport and storage: Retracts and folds down to 56 cm for easy carrying and space-saving storage in safety kits or onboard stowage. Comfortable grip: Non-slip handle design improves control in wet conditions. Function, compatibility, and performance Function: Retractable paddle blade with adjustable handle for propulsion and steering. Material: Durable ABS construction that resists deformation and floats if dropped. Size: Adjustable length 56–106 cm; folded length 56 cm for compact storage. Performance: Thickened blades increase surface area for stronger forward drive, better speed, and improved maneuverability. Compatibility: Suitable for a variety of small craft and ship types, including kayaks, stand-up paddleboards, small boats, and as part of onboard safety or emergency kits. Practical use scenarios Recreational paddling: Quickly adjust the handle to fit different paddlers on a stand-up paddleboard or kayak, then collapse the paddle for transport and storage. Fishing or small-boat trips: Use the thicker blades to gain better propulsion and control while casting or positioning the boat; the paddle floats if it slips into the water. Emergency and safety kits: Compact folded length (56 cm) makes it easy to store with other ship safety equipment or in kayak emergency kits for rapid deployment. What you get A durable, retractable paddle blade with thickened blades, ABS construction, non-slip handle, adjustable length (56–106 cm), and compact folded length (56 cm) for easy transport and storage.
