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. You'll go farther, faster, with less effort.
