Whitewater Forum : Breakdown Paddle, Dry bag - and seat positioning

Professor Paddle · Washington, Oregon and vicinity

Author: DaleSubject: Breakdown Paddle, Dry bag - and seat positioningPosted: 11 Jul 2016 at 9:05pmWhat cchollnd said. You can also add a couple of loops of bungie through the rear center pillar to help hold them in place. Is there room in the bow for the 2 smaller sections of paddle? That would help a bit with the balance issue.

Author: cchollndSubject: Breakdown Paddle, Dry bag - and seat positioningPosted: 11 Jul 2016 at 6:13pmJust curious, but why use dry bags? Its extra weight and your paddle is waterproof. I put two pieces of the paddle on each side of the center pillar in the stern and use my float bags to hold them in place. Works real well.
