The safety spare paddle, here the shaft/joint weakness for an easy full pressure re entry is seen as essential to the system's design.
I'm not in yet but I figure with more time chances for capsize increase. I was on the west coast where temps/location/wind/diesel fuel and the orca activity priority were notmpractice positive but here at 76 degrees clean water itsa go.
A wet exit for roll failure leads to re entry practice, both float roll and float climb in.
A Back Up is mounted so if the BU works we're up.
Practice does produce theater. Shoreliners see my thrashing about as a chance to HELP. I'm using earplugs.
The Aqua Bound is glued together so turning a strong joint is not scheduled nor do we expect to see one in stock CF or fiberglass as who would break test a $250 paddle.
I'll try pressuring a white water canoe paddle shaft
Any recommendations for a strong shafted paddle in the Aqua Bound category ?
No math paddlers with an equation ?
