Eddyline Paddle Size Chart

Please review the size charts below to determine Eddyline's recommended paddle length for your height, kayak, and paddling style.

Low-Angle Stroke – The casual and relaxed nature of the low-angle stroke makes it the most popular style for recreational and touring paddlers. During a low-angle stroke, the paddle shaft is kept more horizontal, typically less than 40-degrees, relative to the water’s surface.

High-Angle Stroke – The power and efficiency of the high-angle stroke makes it the preferred style of fitness and performance-oriented paddlers. During a high-angle stroke, the paddle shaft is kept more vertical, typically more than 50-degrees, relative to the water’s surface.
