“The paddle is great. Very light and doesn't put extra strain on shoulders. Needed to adjust my paddling method somewhat because it just cruises with ease in the water.”
“I have enjoyed this paddle, but it is definitely different and requires rider adjustment. One generally uses their paddle for many maneuvers, including balance in a choppy waterway. It does not react the same as a solid paddle when you are making adjustments in difficult waters. I haven't fallen off my board in four years but did so three times on the same day with this paddle in a confused wave waterway. I believe it is an adjustment needed on my side, but just wanted to highlight this for the benefit of other buyers. In the end, I believe I will adjust. There is definitely much less stress on the shoulders and my speeds remain consistent.”
“As I said the paddle is excellent apart for one thing. For me the handle is too bulbous. Its just too big. I love how the slitted blade softens the catch. Absolutly no loss of power or control. All in all an excellent paddle. I swapped the handle section for one from another carbon paddle i had, one with a smaller grip and I now have a very comfortable excellent paddle.”
