From: "James Tibensky" <jimtibensky_at_hotmail.com> > relative strength or not of push as > opposed to pull on the blade > This is mentioned many times. However, the paddler can't vary this. It is dictated by the position of the hands on the shaft and their position relative to the blade. You can adjust the hand position, the amount of motion of the hands (eg fix the top hand and move the lower, fix the lower and move the upper etc) and angle of the shaft, but the relationship between the forces in the hands is fixed.
