| Whitewater Forum : William Nealy's book - "KAYAK" |
Author: Matt Haverly Subject: William Nealy's book - "KAYAK" Posted: 15 Mar 2016 at 10:31pm Update - regarding paddle grip and paddle length To resummarize, I was kayaking a large Jackson Zen with a paddle that was a bit small for me based on Werner recommendations - a 197cm Powerhouse (I am 6 foot 2 inches tall). I later got a smaller kayak - a Dagger Nomad 8.5, and right away the paddle didn't feel too small for me - worked fine. Recently tried a demo paddle - a 203cm Werner Double Diamond. For my small boats, it felt a bit large. Just a couple weeks ago I bought a 200cm Werner Powerhouse. IT FEELS JUST RIGHT when I am paddling the Zen, and doesn't feel too big on my smaller kayaks either. I ran into a guy at the pool tonight who also just recently got a Jackson Zen - large size like mine. He ALSO had a paddle the same size as my old one - 197cm. He was having trouble with his roll being as consistent as it was on prior kayak. He was about 6 feet tall, but his Zen is same size as mine. He ended up borrowing a 200cm paddle and he was rolling right up. Lessons learned: I think the large size Zen, being an older 2012 model Zen, has pretty flat rocker, and it is also a pretty wide kayak. I think that boat in particular really demands a longer paddle than you would typically use if you were paddling a Dagger Nomad 8.5 or similar type/length creek boat. 200cm is the recommended size for my height. I didn't think 3cm would make such a big difference but it really does. 3cm more and it starts feeling to long on the smaller kayaks. I also now have moved the seat back one notch from the center - which Jackson says is a popular setup for the Zen (either center notch or one notch back). I tried it all the way forward once and hated it. I have done center notch and also one notch back and I feel like one notch back is the best all around setting so far. As a beginning kayaker, my kayaking began to really improve when I switched to the smaller creek boat (Dagger Nomad). But now that I have a longer and better fitting paddle, I'm starting to enjoy the Zen much more than I used to, and am using it on the water more. It is a planning hull boat so it has more of a high performance setup going on. The Nomad sure gets you down stuff nice though and is a great confidence building boat, and it didn't seem to matter that my paddle was a little small when I was in it because the Nomad spins so much easier being shorter, narrower, and having so much more rocker. As for grip, with the longer paddle, I went with straight shaft. Everything is just feeling more natural with this paddle so grip seems to be less of an issue. |
