The 5 Best pelican SUP Paddles (2023 reviews)

Understanding that mastering a stand up paddle board can be challenging for children, the Pelican SUP Junior paddle is perfect for young SUP paddlers. This lightweight paddle features a two-piece aluminum shaft with tightening mechanism for length adjustment to find the perfect height for maximum control and paddling efficiency, and a T-grip for little hands to help stabilize the paddle blade during the stroke. It can handle the current and tough hard paddling to catch some mean waves.

This paddle for youth has a T-Grip for maximum comfort. It is made by unscrewing a nut and then retightening it with the inner shaft set at the right height. The paddle is super stiff and wont flex when paddling hard.

Compared with other products by Pelican, the pelican easy height adjustment paddle has a convenient design. This paddle is equipped with a pin locking mechanism that allows you to quickly adjust the length. It is made with a strong aluminum shaft and durable fiberglass reinforced polypropylene blade. It is sturdy (aluminum pole), adjustable, comfortable to hold, light weight, with good surface area on the head and easy to use. The material of the blade creates a stiffer blade, which maximizes each stroke. It will allow you to comfortably stay on the water for hours.

The length is obviously intended for stand up paddling, but also fine for sitting down on a paddle board, or an emergency oar for your small boat. The new handle gives you a softer and more comfortable grip.

Best For storage: pelican SUP Paddle

Buy on Amazon

If you're really tall and don't plan or need to condense feel like this paddle could be perfect for you. It does float quite well and is a solid paddle, build well and very sturdy. It offers smooth pull through the water. The paddle itself is fine but it is really really long, has only 3 levels to adjust and even the shortest setting is huge. It is ideal for sup paddlers between 5.5 ft and 5.10 ft.

This paddle is heavier than the paddles that come with the paddleboards. The paddle blade is pretty much flat and about 30% larger than the paddles that come with the paddleboards. Both sides of the paddle is the same on this so it can be used on either side.
