Re: [Paddlewise] Enough with the Scientific PaddleAnalysis

It's all how you phrase the question.  Instead of asking "When paddling, do you
prefer a high or low aspect blade?" the question should have been worded "When
nude, do you prefer a high or low aspect paddle."

More seriously, I don't think that it is possible to peg down an answer to the
question (nude or not), because the type of blade will affect the way one
paddles, so it becomes a matter of apples and oranges.   Similarly, to make
some blades work, you have to go at it flat out, which is not necessarily
useful for long jaunts.

Cheers,
Richard Culpeper
