Lendal has out now a prepreg carbon blade that is quite nice.  They had,
some years back, quit making their basic carbon fiber blade but now have
come up with the technology to produce it reliably.
Lendal has also been working on a modified wing style blade that I'm anxious
to see. If it works as hoped, it will be useful for high braces and all the
other touring type strokes that are now precluded by the standard wings.
