Great paddle!

Great paddle, very light which actually makes a difference if you are going to be on the water longer than a couple hours. I actually have the straight shaft version of the player but have noticed wrist discomfort after a while when it is cold. I tried a buddy's bent shaft player and now regret not spending the extra fifty bucks. The fiberglass blades are actually more durable than I expected them to be (maybe due to the thickened blade tip) and the fiberglass isn't too hard to repair yourself if you have to.
