I've used a lot of cheap paddles over the years. This is a cheap paddle that is actually good! Indeed, I'd say it is better than many fiberglass paddles. More durable, light, handles well. Don't bother with anything else unless you just have to have a bent shaft.

The Werner Desperado CF IM Kayak Paddle is great for beginners or intermediate paddlers looking for more performance out of their paddle. The Desperado's mid size blades have the same shape as the Werner Rio, but it's Carbon Fiber Injection Molded blades give it a better swing weight and a more effortless stroke so you can paddle longer more comfortably. This paddle will be a great tool to get you to the next level!
