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?

Oh yeah, btw, the whitewater paddle I'd not want to use for a daily use paddle, too tough on the bod with all that excess blade area.

It is not flat, whitewater or excess in blade.
