Selected User Reviews For Perception Hi Five Kids Kayak Paddle | 2-Piece Aluminum Shaft | Fiberglass/Poly Blade | 190cm

It's ideal for human paddlers of all sizes

4/5

For my 8-year-old daughter, I bought this Perception kids paddle. It's shorter than most standard (adult) paddles, making it easier to handle and maneuver for kids. It's also smaller and lighter (under 2 lbs), making it ideal for smaller hands. The two-piece system is also convenient to store. My only gripe is that there is a small amount of wiggle between the two pieces when the paddle is put together. Although it isn't particularly noticeable, I was aware of it right away. I still believe that a child's paddle is a good value at $40. And it makes my daughter much happier than a bigger, heavier paddle. So it was, in my opinion, a wise investment.

It appears to be sturdy and suitable for children aged 8 and up

5/5

The blades appear to be sturdy, though I wish they were a little bigger, and it worked better for my eight-year-old grandson than the all-plastic one we have. Arrived.

Paddle is a fantastic little paddle

Paddle is fantastic. It's a little pricey, but it's worth it if you're kayaking with small children.
