Four gift ideas you haven't thought of yet!
These shoes can keep up! With a grippy sole and flexible construction, Astral shoes are regularly hailed as the most comfortable river shoes out there. Plus, they are quick to dry – so paddlers can easily transition from the take out to, well, wherever paddlers go after they're done boating.
A river essential for under $10? Yes, please! It sends shivers down our spine to think and write down all the scenarios a paddler may need this for, so, just trust us when we say that everyone needs a safety whistle.
Aire Tributary's SPUD is this year's most user-friendly boat. Both novice and advanced paddlers love this sporty watercraft because it packs a heavy punch while still remaining maneuverable on the water. Plus, it's lightweight and easy to travel with so new paddlers can test it out on multiple sections.
Minimalist by design, this ultra-light PFD offers much less material and moving parts so paddlers can acquire the best possible fit. This PFD wraps around the waist and feels really comfortable and secure.
