I run a paddling group called the Potomac River Paddlers, and our members use this item as well as paddle floats. During unassisted reentry, especially after a long and tiring paddle, this item is a life-saver. I recommend it for everyone who paddles, whether they are rivers, lakes, or oceans.

Same concept with shaped stirrup would be far better. I made my own.

I cannot recommend this item any higher! A great aid for those who do not have the upper body strength (or energy!) to do a paddle-assisted self-rescue. My wife uses it attached to the coaming and it has made all the difference in the world. A "must have" in my book!

I am new to kayaking. While trying self re-entry in pool, I found out I was unable to preform same. After getting my rescue stirrup, I had no trouble with self re-entry. I would recommend this for xxl paddlers.
