In Response To: Re: Rough Water Play article in WaveLength (Kris Buttermore)

: "Something didn't work"? The Brit boater/euro paddler next to him
: in photo 16 is completely out of the kayak! Are you going to blame that on
: the kayak or paddle?

No, I was fascinated with the choice of the wing blade. It would be interesting to hear the paddlers thoughts on the day and what was learned. It looked to be a day rich in experiences.

: This really has nothing to do with the boat and very little to do with the
: paddle. Might have something to do with the collision, individual skills,
: specifics of the situation. Wasn't this a play/practice session anyway?
: How can practice not work?

The part that the wing paddle does play is the awkwardness of a power face scull into brace position.

: I don't get it, but then I'm one of those oddballs who paddles a QCC with a
: GP.

Why side with the majority, by definition they already enough. :)
