Some time ago I took Dave and Johns advice and invested in a Lendal Knordcapp. Last Saturday while kayaking with a friend, we swapped paddles so he could see the difference. Not only was he surprised by the added power, but I was gobsmacked by how feeble his 'run of the mill' paddle felt compared with my knordcap. It was like I was paddling like crazy and not getting anywhere. It'll be interesting to see how many try new paddles on the Easter kayak meet. I don't think most kayakers realise how much they're limiting themselves.

The day we close our minds to the possibilities to see past our own barriers we set for ourselves by ignoring anti-disinformationism, is the day we become helpless to stop what could have been uninevitable.

i will be as many as possible.... i think you are right i had the chance to try a few paddles at the meet on sunday and realy found that they are totally different even though they look similar i would like to try stewart (natomi) blades on a carbon shaft .or kevin's (hatter) with straight set blades no feather and a short shaft .
