Frequently Asked Questions

"Do you offer rentals?"

We are now only offering splitboard, avalanche safety gear and snowshoe package rentals in the winter/spring. For kayak/SUP rentals, we recommend rockymountainpaddling.com.

 

"How do I know if a PFD fits me?"

All of our adult PFDs are rated for a similar buoyancy, the fit is mostly done by chest size. If you pull up on the shoulder straps and they don't come up above your ears, it fits! Check out our advice on how to find the best PFD for you.

 

"I'm new to kayaking, where do I start?"

You can find our course list here or we recommend trying our Wednesday evening rentals on the Glenmore Reservoir if you're not sure what style of kayak you'd like best before purchasing one.

 

"What do I need to bring to my course?"

All of the kayaking/paddleboarding equipment is provided, however, we recommend you bring some noncotton layers for warmth. A water bottle, sunscreen, snacks, and a change of clothes are also recommended. You will receive an email closer to the start of the course with more details or you can contact us at courses@aquabaticscalgary.com with course-specific questions.

 

"Are you able to transfer a product if it is available in a different location?"

Yes, during the summer we process transfers between our Edmonton and Calgary locations once a week. In the off-season, we do transfers bi-weekly.

 

"How long have you been around?"

Check out our About Us page for the details! Our Calgary store moved in June 2021 to the Deerfoot Meadows shopping area but we have existed as a company for much longer.
