NRS
Foam Paddle Float
The NRS Foam paddle float is a key piece of sea kayaking safety gear. A paddle float should ideally be carried by most paddlers in the group. This sea kayak paddle float enables you to get back into your boat in the event of a capsize. It makes it quite easy as it helps to stabilize the kayak. It is amazingly simple and easy to use as it simply slides over your paddle blade, and the securing strap secures to your kayak paddle shaft. The foam paddle float is perfect for storing in the rear of the kayak, behind the seat and backrest so its easily available. This design of the foam paddle float is based around a block of EPE foam, which will not hold water. It then features a bright orange nylon case, which also incorporates reflective taped for enhanced visibility.
