A great backup paddle — and a smarter way to stay safe on the water.
The Fox 40® Telescopic Paddle is a lightweight aluminum backup paddle that telescopes to different lengths and stores compactly when not in use.
Who It’s For
🛶 Kayakers & Canoeists — A lost or broken paddle leaves you stranded. A telescopic backup stored in the hull means you’re never truly without a way back to shore.
⛵ Small Motorized Boat Operators — When the motor fails, a paddle is the backup plan. Compact enough to stow without taking up useful space.
🧗 Outdoor Guides & Trip Leaders — Required safety equipment for many guided paddling trips. The telescoping design means it fits any group member regardless of height or arm reach.
🛡️ Safety-Conscious Paddlers — If you paddle solo or in remote areas, a backup paddle isn’t paranoia — it’s standard practice.
