North Water Paddle Float Counter Balance

Up to 30% Savings during the REI Fall Sale! Plus members save 20% on one full price item. Add this counter balance to your North Water rescue float (sold separately) to make self-rescues safer and more efficient. Counter balance is simply a pleated nylon bag that clips to both ends of the paddle float. When submerged the bag fills with water creating additional resistance that prevents your paddle from lifting out of the water during a self-rescue. PVC flap at the mouth of the bag acts as a one-way valve preventing water from escaping the bag. Water is drained out of the bag by simply flipping your paddle blade over; the water drains through mesh on the topside of the bag. Counter balance is designed to be used only with the North Water rescue float.
