I am so glad to have made my paddle more comfortable to hold. My hands dont get blisters and I there is no need to wear paddling gloves to protect them.

Works very well for my new carbon fiber paddle
I was looking at something to prevent chaffing when I kayak. The cheap paddles I had only came with rubber grips that felt very uncomfortable. This seems to provide with me more grip. One issue was putting them on. I had to put soap to make it slipper., then I was able to slide them into place.

Too big
The grip is just a bit bigger than the paddle that I have so they slide down the handle. When you put them where you want them and you’re holding onto the grips, they work perfect and they’re very comfortable but like I said, once you let go, they can shimmy down the handle on you.

Good quality, well made
Fits my Pelican paddle properly. A bit difficult to remove, but I suppose that's a good thing as it won't be slipping around once it's on & it gets wet.

These made all the difference
I was having some nasty hand-related while paddling my kayak. I tried padded gloves and wrapping the paddle with padded tape and other padded foam and nothing helped. I almost was ready to give up kayaking.But after trying these I found they made a lot of difference. At first I thought that they weren't padded enough but I think they are just right. In fact, after some thought, I think perhaps I was using TOO much padding before. These are padded enough to prevent blisters and rubbing from the hard paddle shaft, but grippy and firm enough for my hands to not move around too much to cause that rubbing. I still use these with bike gloves but the combo of the gloves and these grips really makes a difference.They are pretty easy to slide on if the paddle shaft is hot. The color is also good for visibility I suppose.The only minor issue I have is that they sometimes move up or down on the shaft of the paddle when the paddle gets warm in the hot sun.I didn't take off a star for this because I don't see how they could be made to be able to slide on the shaft yet be so tight that they would never move at all. I used a compression tape (like is used for plumbing repair and other things) wrapped around the shaft on either side of the grips to stop it from ever moving, it only needed one wrap of tape and that was it.So overall they are really good, do their job and seem to be durable.
