Kids Ottertail

Kids Ottertail

Regular price$100.00 USD
/

The Ottertail is a traditional paddle style which has been commonly used by paddle-makers for many years. It has a smaller, symmetrical blade that is easy to pull through the water and is quite responsive to the paddler. For kids we offer a smaller 5" Ottertail.  The 5" Ottertail offers the right size blade for children.

For sizing, best to select a length the same as the child's height.  Since they will be growing quickly it's not a bad idea to buy one a little on the long side.

All paddles take up to 3 weeks to craft and 4-6 days in shipping.

Really good for shallow water

I bought a kids paddle specifically to use in shallow water. All adult paddles no matter the style or brand seem to have very long/large blades. I paddle in florida where I most often am paddling in less than 2 feet of water. This blade is perfect for that application. It performs wonderfully in shallow water and still gives me enough power for the deeper areas I paddle. I would have given 5 stars if I could have gotten the shift oiled. The varnish is already scuffed from the gunnel. I can live with that though. All in all a quality paddle for the price.
