- Having paddle grip tape on your paddle improves comfort and grip. Whether you use canoe paddle grip tape or kayak paddle grip tape, it does not make a difference - it's all about having comfortable grip pads on your kayak paddle. I test the Kato Grip (formerly GetAGrip) kayak paddle tape against using tennis racket grip tape. This is a brand new father/son small business - if you need grips for pretty much anything, please check them out! I do not have a financial interest or relationship with them.

If that tape is no longer available, here is an alternative that is good as well - • DIY Kayak, SUP or Cano...

Thanks for sharing that. A lot of white water and surf paddlers put a 1/4 inch cord along the paddle under the tape along their first row of knuckles. This helps them keep there paddle aligned without have to look at it. It helps for rough water paddling, surf launches and landings, rolls, or anytime you need to know how your paddle is aligned without looking.
Great idea!
Looks like a good deal ........think I give it a try . Great info set the hook brother
I just got a new paddle and will definitely try this out. I also noticed your duct tape drip tag and it reminded me to add that also (it really works). Appreciate your ideas making it more enjoyable on the water. 👍👍 Thank you! God Bless
I really appreciate that! I'll work even harder!
I like the Yak Grips I use because of the cushioning
i got another suggestion for ur test on the grip tape for guaranteed hold and comfort. before adding on the grip tape, clean area with isopropyl alcohol and run a strip of 3m double sided industrial tape, then cover with the grip. works great for me. Aloha from Kansas
Great Video. Nice
I prefer gloves if I have to paddle very much, but I've played racquet sports and bicycled for years: there are all kind of textured and cushioned tape available.
I love the grip wrap. Yet I think it wouldn’t be needed if paddle shafts weren’t black. What genius thought of that?
Great video and definitely need to try some of this tape. Looking to get another kayak soon and was looking into a Jackson. Any downside to one like yours?
You should look at my summary after using it for a while - th-cam.com/video/_gP1hkTXI_0/w-d-xo.html
I would buy it again despite the negatives.
Baseball bat tape I use on my paddle. It’s flexibility and comfortably is surprising.
Another great idea!
Do you know how to get in touch with Nate? The link is dead and I need some more of his great tape.
Yes, I sent you his email
I use bike handle bar tape on my paddle. It's very good.
That works!
What’s with the little flaps of tape on the ends of your paddles?
It's a cool hack! th-cam.com/video/yc7g0cGr4Rc/w-d-xo.html
A gripping discussion.
Doc Bailey it’s nice to see he’s got things in hand 😉
I use yak grips, won't leave land with out them.
Wait, wait, wait, wait....the only thing you need grip tape on is your dinner fork.
lol! That's the one thing that I never have a problem holding onto! March is next week! Time for early season recons! Reds won't really break up for a while yet.
I can’t find this tape
It's here - www.katogrips.com/
Kayak Hacks Fishing I’m in Canada and when I go to this site, there is no shipping option. How do we buy the tape? Do you actually own this tape as well as it has your photo right on the front page?
@@timberwolf8818 Hi Bernie, Nate here, owner of KatoGrips. Please send me a email at info@katogrips.com and I can help you with the order! Happy to ship to Canada just need to calculate shipping. Thanks for your interest!
I ordered up some Kato Grips and before I put it on, I wonder what the best option is for finishing the ends. It seem like the should be a straight edge at each end.
