Steely Dan and I paddled the Fox on Saturday. He had his great, new Citibot with stock Folbot paddle. I had my new Kodiak with my old faithful SRS adjustable paddle.

I have a question; how much difference does the length of a paddle actually make?
For example; for a person of my height Werner's website recommends a river-running paddle of 194cm and a playboat paddle of 191cm. I need a new paddle but can't really justify...

I notice in the interior images the automatic frs has the look of the manual and the frs is described as having paddle shifters but do you have the option of moving the stick shift up and down?

Just asking since it seems better than down a creek without a paddle. At least up a creek you have the current to carry you downstream. Whereas if downstream and you wanted to get upstream, then that is a bad situation.

There is already a technology whose only purpose is to allow the build of Paddle-Wheel Rams.

Here's a vbox plot of my R35 vs my S4 (before I started lightening it), on the same track, same-ish conditions (different day tho).

b) unrewarding
c) heavy
