This is a decent, low-cost, kayak paddle. Its aluminum frame is lightweight, and the fact that it can be broken down into two pieces makes it easy to store and handle. The adjustable feather is a nice feature for those paddlers who like to change their paddling style. I've used it to kayak about 20 miles or so on lakes so I can't say much about how appropriate it would be for river kayaking, but on the lake, I like it. Its sturdy enough to get you where you are paddling. One of the two shafts is oval shaped, while the other is round. The oval shaped shaft hurts my hand a bit after a few hours of paddling. I have found that this can be minimized by wearing cycling or weight lifting gloves. Still, I would prefer that both shafts be round and not oval.

This is a decent paddle that does the job. It is heavy compared with other paddles that i've tried but for the price it is well worth it. Most other light paddles are 3 times the price of this one

Despite the push pin connector need some adjustment before insertion, this Carlisle Day Tripper is worth the money. Returned the one bought from Dicks and kept this instead. We have a two person inflatable Kayak, and Wife use this on front. The length and overall balance is great for her height (5'4"). Even though the blades themselves are more angular / slanted then the other one I'd bought and use, it cuts water quite well.
