Return to Bending Branches Sunrise GS Kayak Paddle Product Details.
Description: The Bending Branches Sunrise GS has all the features of the basic Sunrise Kayak paddle! The new blade provides a smooth, easy pull, and the addition of a fiberglass black shaft adds a warmer feel and more comfort than the standard aluminum shaft.
ACK Review: The Bending Branches Sunrise GS paddle is high quality and light! The bright yellow blades make me feel safe in all conditions.

| Review: | I am a recreational paddler who paddles flat water rivers and lakes 1 to 3 hour trips a couple times a month. This paddle was an excellent purchase. The fiberglass shaft is very comfortable and its light weight makes longer paddles more enjoyable. Purchased it on sale @ $79. Can't imagine doing any better for the price, even at $99. Austin Kayak delivered on quickly and in excellent packaging, as always! | ||

| Review: | I also got the same paddles with my Hobie Quest,and bought this set for my Ocean Kayak Manta 16. I did find one slight difference and that is in the grip area, these seem to be slightly oval in shape. This makes the paddles much more comfortable. I would rate this paddle as great. | ||

| Review: | This paddle is light and comfortable. It is also strong. I have been out with it paddling against the wind and waves. It handled very well even against winds that included at least twenty mile an hour gusts. I like the strength and the visibility of the yellow blades. It is a great paddle. | ||

| Review: | The Bending Branches Sunrise GS Paddle came immediately and in perfect shape. I've used these paddles before so I expect it will be quite acceptable. Unfortunately the weather has dropped about 30 degrees and I have not yet gone the $$$ route of a dry suit or a wet suit -- therefore the paddle has not yet touched water. | ||
