Store reviews
Nobody has reviewed the Paluski Riptide Kayak yet. This is what shoppers say about our store on Google.
Ordered a very fragile ice rod online. It was shipped right away and packed very well.
A lovely shop with more gear than you would think. Knowledgeable and friendly staff who actually use the gear.
Didn't know what to expect on our visit, but the staff was fantastic and the selection was impressive for the space.

The safety gear Canada requires in a canoe or sit-in kayak
Every canoe and sit-in kayak, the kind you sit inside, must carry a lifejacket or PFD (personal flotation device) for each person on board. It also needs a floating rope at least 15 m long to throw to someone in the water, a bailer or hand bilge pump to empty water from the boat, and a whistle or horn. After sunset or in fog, add a watertight flashlight. On a sit-on-top or a paddleboard, a whistle or horn is all you have to carry by day if you wear your PFD. Our safety kit holds approved PFDs for an adult and a youth, a whistle, a hand bilge pump and a throw bag of floating rope. Untick what's already in your boat.
