Awesome device! Aug 20, 2011 By loonsong
I purchased a paddle float in preparation for renting a kayak for day use in British Columbia. I wanted to know how the device operated so I would be that much better prepared in the event of a spill into chilly waters. I tried it out in a warm Virginia lake before my trip and was astounded how well it worked! I followed the instructions to the letter, partially inflating it before flipping then completing inflation once in the water (good idea!). After securing the float on a paddle blade, I then slid the opposite blade under my deck cord, as instructed. Using the paddle with float as an outrigger I was easily able to climb back in my kayak...I made three successful attempts...each in under a minute! While I have not had to use one in a real emergency, I am confident I could do so, even in rough, cold water. I am a strong female but feel most kayakers could use this technique if needed. Practice beforehand is strongly advised. What an ingenious design!

Not the best Jan 09, 2012 By Daniel S Ackermann
I bought this paddle float as a backup at a somewhat lower price than the NRS float I normally carry.

I am quite disappointed:
> In my opinion the float is too big to the extent that it becomes cumbersome.
> There are no drains with the result that the pouch fills up with water and becomes heavy.
> The fastener to close the float's opening around the paddle is too small / short and it becomes quite a struggle to fasten the paddle to the float. I would hate to try and attach the float to the paddle when my hands are cold.

On the plus side, the float appears to be sturdy and it does have a lanyard to attach to the boat to prevent it from blowing away.

This one will be relegated to the bottom drawer and I will get another NRS float.
