YES YES YES We provide foam blocks and straps with every rental and can put two tandem kayaks on even a glass top Tesla or Camry
All of our rentals come with life jackets, paddles, removable foam block roof racks and straps?
We are located at 6343 E Main St Mesa AZ 85205. We are 9 minutes from the river, 20 minutes from Saguaro Lake, and 35 minutes from Canyon Lake
Yes we have customers taking our equipment to California and even Mexico quite often. Just remember to store them in a safe place
YES YES YES We actually designed our rental paddle boards to hold up to 600 lbs so that heavy weight customers can enjoy the sports as well as beginners
Yes, we rent both sit on top and sit inside kayaks
For beginners we recommend sit on top kayaks. Sit on top kayaks are super stable and easy to get on and off of for beginners if you fall in the water. Sit on top kayaks are also favored in the summer because it’s easier to take a dip and get back on your kayak in a sit on top.
We custom designed wide paddleboards for beginners that make it easy to learn and stand on. The cool thing about paddleboards is that you aren’t bound to one position. You can kneel, sit, stand, lay down, cross your legs, sit backwards, do handstands, lay down and take a nap, the options are limitless. So don’t worry if you can’t stand on your first day a lot of beginners just stay on their knees.
YES YES YES Paddles, jackets, removable roof racks and straps are included with your rental.
The lower salt river only has 1 set of Class II rapids, some might say they aren’t even Class II but only Class I rapids. These rapids are located between Water Users Recreation Site and Pebble Beach Rec Site on the left hand side of the last split before the bridge. To avoid these rapids always take the right hand side of the splits in the river between Water Users and Pebble Beach (bridge).
We recommend beginners go to the lake to get their balance and get familiar with paddling. Although our river is an easy, lazy river, it’s moving water and having some lake experience is recommended. We recommend a lake session before heading to the river unless you are with experienced paddlers who you trust.
At Redline we charge one low daily rate. Our low-cost rental rates make kayaking and paddle boarding affordable for everyone. We even have a special where you rent for 2 days and the 3rd is FREE
Unfortunately no companies are legally allowed to deliver kayaks to the Salt River or Saguaro Lake. Our NE Mesa location is 10 minutes from the Salt River. With foam blocks and straps we can show you how to make it happen. We also have a vendor of ours located right at Canyon Lake Marina
A – There’s a few options if you only have 1 car and want to paddle the river.
1) Park at Granite Reef and paddle upstream – a lot of people will park at the bottom and paddle upstream because the bottom of the river is very lake like and half of the time the wind is going upstream so its not hard to paddle upstream at all then when you are ready to head back turn around and head back to your car
2) Uber – Some people will leave their equipment and friends at the top drive their car down to the end point and use Uber to get a ride back up the top so that their car is waiting for them at the bottom. Make sure you go to the end point first and make sure your phone service works and Uber is available. Granite reef or Goldfield usually are the best places to catch an Uber
Skip the hassle. Reserve your high-quality gear now and head straight to the lake.
