Should I choose a Rudder or Skeg kayak

Hi Guys,

I am about to buy my first kayak and I'm not sure if I should choose a rudder or a skeg... What are some of the differences between them and which one is better?

Thanx ;)

Rudder or Skeg

Hi kayakgirl,

We asked Kelly at the Complete Paddler about rudders and skegs. Here's what he had to say:

We hope this helps!
