Jeff,
    I bought a Werner Camano all carbonfiber paddle a few months ago. VERY 
NICE!!! They are very expensive but the light weight make a big difference 
in reducing arm fatigue on long paddles. My typical paddle is 20 to 30 miles 
on the open ocean. I had used wood paddles before which I loved the looks of 
but I am now a believer in carbonfiber. Also depending on where you are 
paddling and the distance you are going I would highly recommend you carry a 
spare paddle. I have broken two paddles in the last year. Lucky for me I was 
very close to shore but it could have been very ugly if it had happened off 
shore.
    I would recommend you talk to dealers about the AT Xception and find out 
their thoughts as well. Find out if they have ever had them returned because 
of problems and how good is the warranty service.
   Hope this helps, Vinny
