I suspect my 240 cm Swift paddle is too long for me. I've cut it down to   a
230 and may continue shortening it, so I can determine the ideal length   <>
joint pains.

What length paddles to other Paddlewisenheimers use? Around here (South
Florida) the average seems to be 220cm. I am 6' and paddle a narrow boat.

Thanks for the insight.

I have a 245 cm Wind Swift that I likewise think is too long for me. I
asked Eddyline if they could shorten it, but they said no. How did you
shorten yours?
