Thanks. Aesthetically it is beautiful paddle, not in the traditional way of classic paddles, more like a piece of art. It is very light. I have used one single ZRE paddle for over 11 years so any transition would be weird but within a few minutes I was comfortable with this one (though not with the responsibility). My preference was for a little more depth for the base of the palm and a slight front center ridge to reduce flutter, but I did not feel the softness. It turned out great - hope I can get one like it for my outrigger. For some reason, he let me be the first to use it. Thanks.
