Update on the paddles....

I finished the adult and youth versions and weighed them... WOW, are they ever light. The adult version, patterened after my Bending Branches Sun Shadow paddle weighs in at 13.4 oz vs 24.3 oz for the Sun Shadow. Unbelievable!! And, the youth version (80% scale) weighs in at 11.0 oz. These weights are without any glass reinforcement..
