I'm looking into eventually getting a new paddle. Right now I'm using a 194 Werner Sherpa 30 degree bent shaft. It's also a small shaft.
For my next paddle I want something even lighter for sure and paddle blades about the same size as the Sherpa.
I'm also considering getting a paddle that's a bit longer.
What's the thoughts on that? Do people size up paddle length to get better reach? I'm 5'4" and was thinking of going with a 197 cm.
Thanks for your responses in advance!!
Cheers!

IF your going to look for a lighter paddle your also likely looking at a stiffer carbon shaft and ditch the bent shaft and go with straight to shave a few grams.

The carbon blades on a fiberglass shaft are as light as your going to get with out going to a slalom paddle, but then you sacrifice durability.

My advice is always a straight fiberglass shaft.

I'm 6'2" with a 6'4" wingspan and I paddle a 197, really paddle length can be changed by altering how wide you grip. In PNW rivers and creeks I've always used a very narrow grip with about as much shaft between my hands as between my hand and the blade. This provides more leverage and makes it easier to create lift, and your sweep stroke has a wider radius.

The foam cores are bit heavier but have their own advantages.

So I've heard a lot of talk, but what is the difference between a straight shaft and bent shaft? I can SEE the obvious difference and understand it's lighter, but in regards to the roll and paddling I've heard differing views.
I took my straight shaft breakdown to the pool and it felt totally different than my bent shaft. I felt like my roll sucked with the straight shaft and I felt like I was missing simple paddle strokes just in the pool. It may just be a case of not giving the straight shaft a fair chance, but I also don't want to invest in something I don't like.
Cheers superposer, I may have to take you up on that ;)
