KAPCO HoldFast Kayak and Canoe Paddle Grip 6", Pair

Okay. I love the material its made of. Really grippy. But when looking for paddle grips I was confused about getting 1, or a pair. I have a new kayak and the paddle doesn't have any grip on it, so instead of duct tape I started looking.I had looked at several sets and they all seemed to run about $15 to $30 bucks. These had everything I wanted like how you put them on, material... and that's all there is to selecting these, and the Kapco won out so I ordered.I got one in the mail yesterday. One. Just one. Well, I don't have duct tape that matches that color and I do love the ONE I got, so I ordered another one. So all in all, I paid a PREMIUM price for these. I would have been much happier if there were two per package. If I would have been paying attention I probably would not have selected these covers.

At first the grip felt great - very comfortable and easy to apply. But after the first paddle the edges started to peel off. After 3 uses I took it off.The photo is after paddling with it 3X.It also wasn't large enough to fit my OC paddle - they probably fit a DB paddle better.

These should be properly advertised as a canoe paddle kit since each package only includes one long grip and one T-handle grip. There is no "pair" that is for kayak paddles that both horizontal. So basically if you are a kayaker looking to use this product you need to buy two packages @ $15 each, or $30 bucks. For that money it might be better advised to buy a nice set of gloves.

These made my paddle gummy and shifted around after a couple uses. I wound up having to remove them and the residue (which came off with alcohol). I don’t know if it was the salt water that we kayak in or what, but these actually rubbed a blister instead of adding protection.

Satisfied. Great product. I ordered clear but they are actually a very light off white/beige. The was it was described I thought they wouldn't show very much against my black paddle handle but they stick out like a sore thumb. I wish I would have know they really are a true clear and I would have ordered black. The grips are actually the best grips I have ever used! Thanks fir making a great product.

They say 2 grips per package but I’ve ordered twice and both times only received one black grip per package, and I ordered at separate times!

I use these on my Dragonboat paddles and love it. It’s much more comfortable than paddle tape, and my hand stays in place. I hope it’s back in stock soon as I told several teammates about it today!

So far so good. This is a good grip for my dragon boat paddle. The only thing is that we followed directions as given and watched the video to apply it and the pieces aren't exactly aligned.
