In Response To: Paddle: Flat blade (PatrickC)

: Nick's paddle in high speed current conditions is almost flat..
: Makes sense to me in those conditions.

: Is that a good daily use paddle?

Looks like a wood whitewater paddle, think I'd use my Waterstick in those conditions. Also I'd use the whitewater boat, I obviously don't have quite the guts Nick has taking a stripper in those conditions

It is not flat, whitewater or excess in blade.
