Typically used for recreational kayaks and touring kayaks low angle paddles are great for a more relaxed paddling trip.

• Shaft and Blade maintenance: Blade and shaft repair can be made with Epoxy or fiberglass kits. You should try to avoid using the blade and shaft as a push off mechanism. Do not dig the blade into the ground to push off
