The Edge is Pueblo’s local paddle shop. Sure they also do snowboarding and skiing when there is snow in them thar hills, but when things start to thaw owner Bob Walker and his knowledgeable staff focus on boating.
Playboats, creekers, recreational boats, and yes, even sea kayaks are available at The Edge. Bob may not have a large selection in stock but he makes up for that by being very customer friendly and making sure that each customer has the boat and gear that best suits their needs. Plus, if Bob doesn’t have it, and you want it, he’ll get it for you. And it will be the size, color and boat manufacturer of YOUR choice.
I almost forgot, but The Edge also offers introduction to whitewater kayaking lessons. For those new to paddling it is a gret way to find out if this is the sport for you. Classes are taught in local swimming pools, tame stretches of the Arkasas River and of course in the Pueblo Whitewater Park.
The Edge is a small and friendly place where you can stop in to talk paddling while boating videos play on the tv overhead. The shop is located at 107 N. Union Avenue next to the Historic Arkansas Riverwalk of Pueblo and just 4 blocks from the Pueblo Whitewater Park.
The Edge doesn’t only have rental and demo boats, but also boogie boards and river boards are available for those who choose an alternative to paddling in the Pueblo Whitewater Park.Shop hours are from 10am-6pm Mon-Fri and 10am-5pm on Saturdays. Closed on Sundays. The phone number for The Edge is 719 583-2021.
When you stop in, tell 'em that you saw this on "Paddle Pueblo". Thanks!
