I broke a Werner paddle blade in a pool session trying to "pole valt" off the
bottom after missing a roll.  The blade developed a hinge right in the middle
below the center rib.  My fault!  The same session I also broke a friends
greenland stick, she said that it had developed a crack prior to her lending it
to me.  I still felt guilty though.
