In Response To: Other: Paddle shaft material specifications? (Stephanie Kocura)

Caught any of the Louis Vuitton Cup racing off New Zealand on the tube lately? I bet there is ample yardage of CF in those Americas Cup style boats. I don't know that much about the sport but I enjoy watching after a few hours of kayak building... I was looking at one of the mainsails in some highlights last night and the boom looked like one massive CF "U" channel.
