Hooked On Kayaking

Kayak thigh braces enable you to surf a kayak. Without them you have minimal control of your turns. They also help the paddler to stay firmly seated, adding to the paddling experience. On peeling wave faces, thigh braces provide the purchase you need for carving smooth, controlled turns without fear of losing your edge. In rough water, they keep you in the kayak. That is why we offer three different levels of thigh braces. The “Budget” Thigh Brace for basic thigh support at a low price, The “Deluxe” Thigh Brace for a more ergonomic solution and, for the ultimate in kayak leg brace performance, the “Contour Bungee” Thigh Brace with its constant pressure system that eliminates slipping.
