In Response To: Winged paddles (David Yates)

Epic paddles has a good, even handed description of the advantages and disadvantages of wing paddles: http://www.epicpaddles.com/wing.htm

: I'd love to hear from anyone who has had experience w/ winged paddles for sea
: kayaking.

: I'm currently using a Lendal carbon paddle w/ cranks, which I like alot, but
: the winged concept is interesting. Are they good for touring or only
: racing? Any negative impact on bracing, rolling, etc? Are they really
: faster? Which models are best?

: Interested in any and all input.
