Why bent-shaft stand up paddles? |
|
If you haven't used an elbowed standup paddle, I urge you to try one. Most people prefer it.
The blade is angled forward from the shaft so the more-effective front part of the stroke lasts longer.
It also prevents lifting water at stroke's end. Elbow paddles deliver more of your effort to the water.
You'll go farther, faster, and with less effort. A straight-shaft paddle wastes effort lifting water at the
end of the stroke; an elbowed paddle doesn't.
