Pros & Cons
Pros
The shaft is oval shaped so when you have your paddle feathered you can work it properly. I am a lefty but used to living in a right hand world so it doesn't bother me that much. The shaft has some kind of coating that makes griping easier as well.

Highlights
Quality
Being new to kayaking, we knew we needed quality oars and this one seems to have it all.
I enjoyed myself with the new paddles.
It literally says it in the product discription!
Price
For the price though, they aren’t bad.
Competitiveness
Also a knotch in the paddle itself for water run-off & another one for fishing line or a rope.
The entire shaft has a nice anti-slip coating to it which is fantastic.
Great feature usually only found on much spendier paddles.
