The Alpine Lake Paddle breaks into four pieces with stainless steel push-button ferrules, so it fits in a pack for hike-in trips. It pairs an impact resistant composite blade with a fiberglass shaft at 220cm and 0 degree feather. Kokopelli lists it as compatible with packrafts such as the Rogue, Moki, Hornet-Lite and Castaway XL.

Good to know
- At 220cm it suits narrow boats like packrafts; wide fishing kayaks usually need a longer paddle.
- Rinse and dry the ferrule joints after each trip so the push buttons don’t stick.
KayakDIY take: A breakdown paddle is what makes hike-in water realistic, since it rides in the pack instead of in your hands. For more options, see my fishing kayak accessories guide.
