I'm ordering one of these. Only $15.26 from Amazon.
I would think that you would want your back up to be reliable did you read the reviews on this paddle? a 2x4 might be a better option.

the reviews are pretty bad but I think it might still make a good emergency paddle. I will buy 1 and see if it is worth getting a couple more for my other kayaks as an Emergency Only paddle. I will post up a review on here as well.

You need to make sure that you get em in the head or you'll ruin the fillets.

I think I'm going to go with the telescopic paddle recommended by Mooch.
