: Foot pegs--what primitive devices! I guess the guys who design them
: don't do three hour paddles.
: I plan to build flat foot pads with hinges for rudder at the top

My pedals are full-foot sized. The hinge is on the front side and about 2" up from the bottom. If you move your foot (bend your ankle) you will see that the top of the foot goes forward and the heel moves back - which is what happens with the hinge off the "floor".

Note also that the rudder lines are auto-adjusting.
