PaddleMore in Loch Lomond and the Trossachs

The Bending Branches Arrow is a highly versatile wooden canoe paddle. It features a shorter blade than some of its alternatives, making it great for use in deeper water, whilst still performing fine in shallow waters. The Arrow has a laminated basswood shaft which is topped off with a classic palm grip, whilst the blade has been made with a blend of basswood, red alder and maple. The bottom and lower edges of the blade are protected by the Rockgard system that helps keep the wood protected.

The Eckla Spare Wheels will replace worn out or lost parts of your existing canoe trolley, or give yourself a range of different sized wheels for use on different terrains.

Given the critical importance of paddles, it's essential to take care of them during transport and storage. Composite shafts are particularly susceptible to damage, which could result in sudden failure while on the water. HF Equipment Paddle bags offer reliable protection and come in two sizes: one for single-piece paddles up to 205cm and the other for split touring paddles, measuring 135cm.

The Hou Canoes Hou 14 is the bigger version of the Hou 13 model, it's a touch longer and has a higher load carrying capacity. It is also able to track a little quicker and in reality is a bit more of a multi-tasking boat. Its depth and longer length allow for a drier ride in the bouncy stuff and provide more forward speed than its little brother. This shape was designed as an all rounder as so it will paddle well on the open water, as well as on flat rivers too. Simply put, a fantastic 1/2 person boat.

The Palm Alba Paddle is a great all-round canoe paddle that offers the feel of wood, whilst having the added durability of plastic. Thanks to its buoyant foam core blade, it's light in the water and the clean shape works smoothly for all strokes without flutter.

The Yak Dry Holdalls are super durable and waterproof bags made from 500D PVC, which will keep your kit clean and dry in even the harshest environments. They come in three generous sizes that will accommodate everything you need for your next adventure. The Yak Dry Holdall features a tradition roll-top design which ensures there are zo zips that could potentially fail, whilst top and side straps make sure the bag will stay sealed, even when compressed.
