Drip rings for paddle

Does anyone know how to add drip rings to a paddle that does not dissemble? We have some at the club that don’t have them….. wondered whether anyone could do some DIY and add them? ☺️

    Drip rings are not usually fitted to paddles that are designed for white water use - because you are going to get wet anyway

    I am using it on the sea- is there a way we could consider doing it? Would it impact it for white water? It’s the best paddle I can find so far. The ones with drip rings that are my length are a very heavy paddle?

    You can fashion rudimentary drip rings with electrical tape or duct tape. If doing so on club paddles, please consult the boatswain beforehand, duct tape can leave a sticky mess behind when removed!

    Thanks Brian! I think I will leave them be as I have a cag and can keep myself dry! 👍☺️
