An index is a long "bump" or raised portion of a paddle shaft that helps to orient your hand to the proper grasping position without having to look at the shaft. It makes a portion, say 12", of the shaft non circular. Some companies offer them as an after factory add on. Some are heat shrink some stick on. Can someone else do a better job at explaining this? I took too much Nyquil. Brain cramping.
