I bought the 84" when assembled there is no option to adjust the length. When assembled it measures from end to end 85". We have another brand measuring 96" the same thing no option to adjust the length.

It is 4 inches from the bottom of the pad to the end of the handle. Only about 3 1/4 inches is grippable though as some of it is on the face of the paddle.

Ok, the ones I purchased were the 54" paddles, they are actually 55 1/2 inches in total length when assembled, that is from the tip of the paddle to the top of the T handle, 54 inches if you measure from the bottom of the T handle. The 48's are probably a shorter version that is also for sale.

The paddles are sold in CM, the 220cm is 86.6142 inches, the 230cm is 90.5512 inches, and the 240cm is 94.4882 inches. Hope this helps.

The blade is 8x12 at its widest point and provides an excellent amount of thrust with little effort. I am very pleased with these paddles. We have a sixteen ft canoe and they are plenty of paddle. I'm not sure how they would hold up to strong rapids as we don't do that.

Generally the taller you are the longer the paddle you need. Here is a guide I found on REI's site : http://www.rei.com/mt/www.rei.com/learn/expert-advice/canoe-paddle.html

Mine had 2 paddles, each came in three parts. Make sure you really tighten them before use.

If you're 6'2" and 230, you need a way longer paddle board. Nothing shorter than 12'6". I'm only 5'7" and all of my boards are over 12. -You'll be bailing left and right. I got this one for my kids.

I have a 36" Odyessy Rossie II putter. I measured it for you and 18" stick out from the holder. So a 32" putter will stick out 14". Note: Also I had put a Wynn oversized putter grip on it that wouldn't fit inside the holder. I then switched to a Tiger oversized grip, (not as fat) and it fits in now just fine. Just beware of that fact for the top of the holder is made out of rubber with the TM logo. RC

You should be able to put one end of the paddle on the ground, and curl your fingertips over the other end at the second knuckle. This will likely be about a 200mm length. However, there are other considerations. It also depends on your kayak and the type of water your plan to kayak in. If your kayak has a wide, stable bottom, you might find the extra length of a 210mm more comfortable. If you plan on river kayaking, the shorter 200mm will be easier to maneuver around river obstacles. If you will only be in lakes, I would go with a 210mm, or even a 220mm. If you plan river kayaking, I think you will be happier with the 200mm. My wife is 5'3". Shis is a beginner, and really likes her 190mm, because we mostly river kayak. This model of paddle is not too expensive, so if you buy it and then don't like the length, you can buy another length and sell this one used on Amazon or some other site and will only be out about $30.

I bought the 9'10" inflatable (which is 6 inches thick & has a weight capacity of 350 lbs.). I absolutely love it for the lake. I had no need for the longer version, & wanted the ease of maneuverability, plus being able to carry & stow the board while fully inflated. I like the paddle that's included, too, & it's better than the ones I purchased standalone.

There are 3 hole choices on one half of the paddle that the button on the other half fits into when you hook your paddle halves together. The middle position will have the paddles set at the same angle on each half. I usually paddle with the center position but if you were paddling against wind or a current or something like that you might try to offset the paddles so that you have more dig on one side than the other? I'm not totally sure about the reason & I'm just guessing. Someone else with more experience may have a better answer for us. I'd like to know the expert answer too.

I have the same boat. The 55 lb thrust and a 48" shaft work fine for me. If you are using the remote, you can't use the foot control at the same time. I think the remote is much better than the foot control for all fishing conditions, including tight spots.

I was also concerned with the height before I bought it. Now that I have it, I am really happy with it. It seems short, but when your playing on it, the height seems about right. The lowest height adjustment is very low & in my opinion, not useable. I have many friends over 6'ft and the highest adjustment works just fine for them. This is a sturdy table, I am happy with my purchase.

Hi, I just got mine a few days ago and weighed it on a Pelouze digital mailing scale and the paddle weighed 6.7 oz. or 190 grams.Don't know why there is such a discrepancy with the other weigh ins but it looks like mine is somewhere in the middle.Hope this helps.

I don't have it with me, but I believe it is 8'. And that "80" in the name usually means the length. Good kids board. Super durable.

Unfortunately there is none. I had this paddle for less than a year & I'd only used it for a few times. I don't like it because it's pretty weak on top spin & bad on control. After all, I wouldn't recommend this paddle to anyone.
