I was able to get a blemished "seconds" for a good price. I hate it. I'm so used to my Swift graphite/carbon fiber (?) that this this thing felt sooo heavy and my arms were sore. I think I should have re-spoken with Swift and asked if that was for the standard translucent paddle. Seems to me that any manufacturer can convert any of their paddles to a four piece. it's just a question of sawing off the blade and installing the push-button mechanism. sandy kramer miami *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
