In Response To: Paddle: 2 pc GP yea or nay (John lasky)

Hello John,

Joe O'Blenis makes beautiful two-piece GP's using carbon fiber ferrules. Personally I've given some thought to a two-piece GP and would like to try doing one using a threaded rod or dowel for connecting the two halves so when it's together it still looks like a one-piece.
