Great 1st paddle. The Cannon Explorer plus 2-Piece Kayak Touring Paddle is the perfect paddle for beginners just getting started in kayaking.  The plus is the addition of a fiberglass ferrule joint for additional durability and corrosion resistance. The medium size blades will move any size kayak through the water. The dihedral angle design of the blade promotes balance, performance and ease of use. The shaft is made of an aircraft grade aluminum and is anodized to protect it from the elements. Vinyl grips help show where to put your hands and offer some warmth on cold paddling days.
