I'm considering purchasing a werner paddle.The big decision will be to fork out the extra bucks on the carbon paddle. I paddle a C/D Solstice GT so the paddle choice would be for day trips and touring ( one to two week trips ). Any comments or advise would be appreciated.

A letter from Chris Duff (forwarded to me with permission to forward) says, in part: I can attest to the durability of Werner Paddles. Yes the gear is taking a beating but the paddles are like that little energizer rabbit- they just keep going and going and going. In ten foot breaking surf I don't ever think about whether they are going to do their job. WE get tumbled and rolled and thrashed and I can feel the muscle of the wave on the paddle as I am upside down.
