BALANCE SOLUTIONS

New kayak ballest system shown by owner Carl and his wife.Mission Statement

At Balance Solutions our mission is to provide the paddler with a comfortable and enjoyable experience on the water.  We believe that staying upright is a key aspect and kayakers should accept the challenges of the water with a relaxed and confident feeling.

"Get the most from your kayak"

 Balance Solutions®, LLC was started in 2004 because of an idea for a ballast system for sea kayaks. It will promote products, in addition to the Paddling Partner, that will enhance the kayakers confidence, comfort, paddling skills and safety.

Paddling Partner
The Stability Solution 


Whether you are a novice kayaker or an expert, you know how important the center of gravity is whenHomePageProduct1.png you need a little extra stability. A low center of gravity is helpful for balance and control.

Inspired by the many references on Center of Gravity, the Paddling Partner®was 6 years in the making. What's the Paddling Partner®? Imagine the little round bottom weighted toy from your childhood. You push it sideways and it immediately rebounds upright. The Paddling Partner® uses the same principle. This sense of the boat constantly trying to center itself may result in more relaxed paddling. And as a kayaker, when you're comfortable you will enhance your paddling skills.

The concept of a ballast system for boats is nothing new. The Eskimos used rounded stones for better control. Antarctic explorer Ernest Shackleton fought for survival in the South Atlantic Ocean with lifeboats weighted with stones.

I'd like to introduce you to the Paddling Partner®Happy kayaking!
