About Bent-Shaft Paddles
If you haven't used an elbow paddle, we urge you to try one. Most people prefer it. The blade is angled forward from the shaft so the more-effective front part of the stroke lasts longer. It also prevents lifting water at stroke's end. Elbow paddles deliver more of your effort to the water. - 73/4" blade. Weight:* 27 oz. Lengths: 51," 54," 57." $19.95
