Default Blade Orientation?

Coming from a wing paddle - where the larger half of the blade
goes upwards, I started orienting my first surf paddle
accordingly.

I suspect I have the white surf paddle in the attached link/photo
upside down.

Which paddle is oriented correctly - the one with black or blades
or the one with white blades?

"Down tipped blades enter the water sooner for immediate response during
quick play boating moves"

If you click through all the paddles you'll the orientation at the top
of each page.
