Blade Size

Acceleration from a standing start might be affected, I conce tried some Inuit blades that seemed little more than a stick flattened at each end, so felt like they had very little 'blade' area. Once you were moving they were excellent however, very smooth and fast. Rolling was fun though! "Little more"? shurely "nothing more"? ;-) Rolling is fine, as is bracing and extreme leaned turns, as long as you remember that using these paddles is at least partly about routine use of extended grip. As well as the ease of sliding them through your hands, the very high natural buoyancy makes life easy with them too. In the pool, at least, I find these easier to roll with than Standard Tat Pool Paddles as they just float up to where you want them.
