I've used 2 different epic wing paddles that had the length-lock.

The paddles I used were from this year so they didn't have much abuse.  In
both cases the mechanism moved easily and stayed in place.

My wife needs a new paddle, she broke the shaft of her current one.  The 
break is where a hand goes so it's unlikely I could be repaired.  It's 
likely I'll get her (with me borrowing) an Epic with the length lock.  I 
thinks it's unlikely I'll be able to justify buying her a wing paddle....
