G'Day,

Thanks for the comments. Looks like I may have to relocate the "spare"
paddle to the front if the quick deploy paddlebag doesn't work. Now this
will probably sound dumb but is there any difference between a storm paddle
and a spare other than where its located?

By the way the paddle in the incident got broken while my friend was
attempting something like a "headstand roll" for the first time. It broke at
the blade not the shaft. He is actually a very good roller.

All the best, PeterO
