What magic paddle do you own that doesn't flutter? I want one. Nothing magic about it, it's all in developing a feel for the paddle. In my experience, fluttering is most commonly caused by overpowering the paddle. If you develop a feel for a paddle and when to apply pressure for maximum effect, it won't flutter. When you're really digging in and paddling hard, you may have to grip it lightly to keep it under control, but that's true of most paddles. I remember the first time that I tried a GP; it sawed up and down in the water uncontrollably. That never happens now. It's all in the technique. |
