Review on OCEANBROAD SUP Paddle Board & Kayak 2-In-1 Paddle For Versatile Use by David Merculief

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Versatility for SUP or Kayaking

First, I love the color. It is bright and visible -- important for when you are out on the water and boats coming by. Obviously, life vests are the most important, but having other visible items with you adds to it.Although the paddle can be converted from SUP to kayak mode, it is not made of the best material nor shaped optimally for stand up paddle boarding. That is one thing that would be a negative: it's just impossible to design something that would work best for kayaking AND for SUP'ing. But, this item makes up for it all for recreation in that you simply just need one for both activities.It works like any 3-piece SUP paddle. To convert it to kayak mode, you remove the handle portion and attach the second paddle instead. Works well until you sometimes can feel the locking mechanism part that can interfere with your grip comfort. Again, not the best paddle for kayaking, but strikes a nice compromise for being versatile for both use cases.I purchased some D-Ring clips to attach the paddle to the side of my iSUP for added convenience.

Pros
  • Works well. Versatile
Cons
  • Very heavy and dripping even with drip catchers. Used it with my paddle board and was very tiring.
