Comments about Bending Branches Navigator Wood Kayak Paddle: This paddle seems to be a perfect match to my Placidboats Spitfire solo canoe. Not only is it a joy to paddle with it, its combination of carbon fiber shaft and finely crafted wooden paddles matches the canoe's beautiful design features. Lower paddle faces are protected with a fiberglass strip that should help ensure long paddle life. Best of all, paddle was $30 cheaper at Campmor than any other place I could find it.
