: Wow, a wing blade in that chop is pretty respectable. Let me guess that the

Wing shouldn't be a problem. Wing is the only paddle type that I use and my surfski is a lot more sensitive than a QCC (my Q600 is more fun in short steep stuff like that though, much more playful than a 21' boat that gets stuffed in the troughs). Low brace and forward stroke are adequate to keep one upright in just about any boat in any condition.
