OK team, it’s time for another Get Outdoors product review.

This week, I review the Assault Hand Paddle by Backwater Paddles!

This thing looks mean but each of its intimidating features has a useful purpose.

This thing has solid size and feel. It’s the perfect size for every boat, even the larger ones such as the Hobie PA14.

It’s bright and it floats as well. The paddle won’t take up a ton of room on your ‘yak.

I recommend checking them out.

Oh and as for the “assault” part of the Assault Paddle, well, check the video out for an “Oh! THAT’S what that is for” moment.

Enjoy.

Opinion: It’s been a week of weak corporate stances against guns, NRA

All week, companies have been taking a "stand" on gun control. Mike Russell argues they are nothing more than weak PR moves to take advantage of consumers.
