Cannon Paddles: Now Available in 'Four Piece' Option

Cannon uses only the finest shaft materials ranging from aircraft grade aluminum to high strength to weight ratio carbon graphite.

Cannon is proud to offer a 100% fiberglass 'ferrule joint' system. Previously used on only higher priced paddles, Cannon feels that something this strong should be standard.

All-Purpose Paddles

Advanced Elements Packlight PaddleThe Advanced Elements Packlight™ Paddle is a very light weight aluminum 4-piece paddle that's excellent for traveling and paddling any type of kayak.

Cannon Cascade All-Purpose PaddleThe Cascade has the asymmetric design and smooth, flutterless strokes that you have come to expect from Cannon. It’s a great paddle for the budget minded recreational paddler. The black anodized shaft is ovaled at both ends for paddle control and is adjustable for RHC, LHC and non-feathered positions. Add its lightweight (2 lbs) and you get a paddle that will take you anywhere there's fun.

Cannon Escape All-Purpose PaddleThe Cannon "Escape" is a great beginner "all purpose" paddle. It's blades are engineered to be free of flutter in the water. The di-hedral angle design of the blade allows for easy pull through the water. The “Escape” shafts have 60 degree indexing, left or right-handed control. You have a choice of 4 lengths (210, 220, 230, or 240 cm).

Cannon Wave All-Purpose PaddleThe “Wave” was designed with as powerful face to propel any recreational boat. With the “Wave” you will find yourself enjoying the elements more and worrying about speed less. Pick one up and you’ll see why Cannon Paddles are engineered for adventure!

Recreational Kayak Paddles: The term “recreational” as we want you to know it has little to do with the history of the world. It is all about “re-creating” oneself as it comes to us from the Latin , “recrear”. Maybe “recrear” means having an exhilarating day ripping through the sea or maybe it’s passing a carefree day with the family out on a kayaking expedition where you might be observing nature with your kids, just spending time building memories. These are paddles for the occasion.

Recreational Paddles

Cannon Asymmetric Spoon PaddleYou've seen it, used it or heard about it: Cannon's Asymmetric Spoon!

Its lightweight, design and durability have made it a global best seller in its category. A very popular recreational paddle. It has replaceable blades if you ever break one.

Touring Kayak Paddles: Touring when in a kayak means just that, going on a tour. It is a sport dedicated to oceans, seas or other large bodies of water. A Touring Kayak Excursion brings one into the realms of nature that are often not experienced by other types of boating. One may experience an intimacy with nature due to the very fact that you are facing the elements in a craft made for quick response time to the elements and using tools to maneuver you that allow for precise movement in the water.

Cannon Nokomis Touring Paddle

The Cannon Nokomis paddle is designed to reduce noise and blade flutter in the water, its dihedral angle provides balance and strength so your paddling is practically effortless.

Choosing A Kayak Paddle

All of the paddles sold at PortableKayaks.com are excellent quality and highly reliable. The chart below has some general guidelines to follow when choosing a kayak paddle. The chart is based upon the fact that most of the time taller people need longer paddles. It's also based on the width of your kayak. For example, inflatable kayak paddles should be longer than folding or hard shell kayak paddles because inflatable kayaks tend to be wider. Longer paddles can be better for speed, shorter paddles may be better for control and the blade designs all have a different purpose. Paddles are measured in centimeters. The shortest is 210 cm (83 inches) and the longest is 240 cm (94.5 inches).

For beginners, the best choice is to buy a lower end all-purpose or recreational paddle before worrying about the complexities of blade design or even length. Often taller people like shorter paddles and vice versa. If you feel you can afford to pay for a lighter fiberglass or carbon shaft, that may be an option but it's not necessary when you're just starting out or when you don't paddle too often or on very long trips. Eventually you may want a paddle with specifications to better fit your paddling needs and style once those factors are established. You’ll find, though, that choosing a kayak paddle really comes down to personal preference.
