    REI Members get back an estimated $ 8.50 on this item as part of their annual member refund.

    The REI Member Dividend

    The REI dividend is a unique benefit of membership in the REI co-op. It's comprised of your member refund—typically 10% back on eligible purchases—and/or your REI Visa® card rebates.

    Each March, active REI members and REI Visa cardholders who earned a rebate receive a refund in the form of an annual dividend notice.

    Only active members receive annual dividend notices. To maintain your active status as an REI member, you need to make net merchandise or shipping purchases of at least $10 per year, unless you joined that year. Member numbers are issued in one name and only that person receives the member refund. Your number can be used by others in your family, but it cannot be transferred to someone else.

    Questions? Call us at 1-800-426-4840 for more about your dividend or its redemption.

          Comments about Bending Branches Arrow Canoe Paddle:

          This paddle looked lovely in the shop and is great to paddle with. It is strong, light and extremely comfortable in the hand. I can put lots of power to the blade when required. It does seem to aid fatigue when compared with other paddles i have used.

            Used this paddle on small calm lakes, shallow streams and the open water of Lake Superior! Handled great under all circumstances! It's weighted well, smooth in the water and minimized fatigue...

              This paddle is perfect for the recreational user. It is very light but still durable. Used it in rivers and lakes, and it performs great.
