Beyond Boarders ... come ski with me

It's an Alien World in Every River
When you look at a river, what do you see? A few flies on top? A fish or two?

Important Accessories For Your New Kayak Paddles
Buying a new kayak is just the beginning of your new adventures.
But before you can hit the water, you will have to buy several
other important pieces of kayak equipment.
You will immediately discover when you buy a kayak that the
extra equipment required becomes quite important. Kayak paddle
accessories are the top factor when starting your adventures.
Paddles make the kayak move more smoothly. The kayak would lose
its allure instantly without paddles! As you shop for paddle
accessories, you will immediately see that these accessories are
a requirement.
Because the paddles are very important, you will want to buy a
paddle bag to keep your paddles undamaged and in working
condition. If there are cracks or single blemishes in one of the
paddles, you will be aware of it immediately. The kayak will
move less smoothly, and you will notice a change in your
paddling.
Oar locks are another accessory for you to consider. This really
depends on personal preference. Oar locks are molded to the side
of your boat to help you paddle better and keep
your oars locked
in place. Oar locks don't cost very much and are perfect for
those who think they need them. These are not a necessity for
everyone, but they are a common choice.
A paddle leash is important for when you fall out of the kayak
or have an accident. The leash lets you grab the paddle when it
is attached to the boat. The leash will increase your chance of
surviving if you ever have such an accident.
These accessories show you how much work goes into kayaking even
before you get to the water. Kayaking requires planning and
shopping before you can get your boat out for its very first run.
However, once you get all the components together it will
greatly enhance your enjoyment of this fantastic sport.
