              This paddle is great for kayaking on flat water. It is light so it doesn't wear you out and the paddle design helps a lot in shallow water. My wife and I have done 10+ hour days with no problem. It is well worth a few extra dollars versus the cheapest paddle you can find.

              Comments about Bending Branches Whisper Paddle - 90.6" (230 cm):

              We own two of these. I couldn't be any happier with them. After nearly 500 miles (river, lake , streams) the only minor issue i've had is one of them developing a minor crack near the angle adjustment button.[...] I have no doubts i will purchase another Bending branches paddle next time i need another one.

                    For the money this is one of the lightest paddles I have found. I have used my Whisper on the rivers and lakes of MN and WI...it has held up very well.

                      1 answer

                      • A:

                        it depends on your arm length and kayak width, and on your intended use. for touring you probably paddle pretty low, and intend to paddle for long periods of time. a longer paddle, with a longer, narrower head SHOULD (the narrow head gives you less tension on your arms when you paddle, so you can get a pattern going and paddle for long periods of time) be a good choice.

                        this being said, its a matter of preference. start with something inexpensive, figure out what you like, and get something a little better once you know what you need
