review :

Kayaking enthusiasts don’t typically paddle the same water all the time. They know the fun is in mixing it up, but different water or different kayaks  sometimes can require different paddles and that can be an expensive hassle. The folks at Bending Branches have solved the problem with their Breeze Plus kayak paddle. This ingenious telescoping paddle allows you to adjust the length without a wrench—just turn the shaft and lock it into place at the length you want. This “Best Of’s” shaft is constructed of aerospace-quality T-700 carbon fiber for superior durability and light weight. The stiff and lightweight fiberglass blades come in three shapes to further refine your performance. The new telescoping ferrule enables you to adjust your paddle to fit your style, conditions and the boat. Adjust to a longer length for a relaxed low angle stroke, or go with a shorter paddle for more power and control in rough or fast water. The choice is yours with the Breeze Plus.

From independent research, we selected the Breeze Plus by Bending Branches as a 3LUXE "Best Of".

MFR site:

New and Improved! Stiff and lightweight fiberglass blades in 3 shapes and colors have the look and feel of ultimate performance for any serious tripper. Breeze's shaft has a tri-axial design using aerospace T-700 Carbon fiber exclusively from Bending Branches that provides amazing durability for the weight. Available with a telescoping ferrule.

  Hi---Paddle is like new, I bought it when I still had a sit-in kayak, thought I;d keep it but the Hobie came with a paddle, so it should go to someone who'll use it!

  The paddle easily adjusts from 215 to 230 cm, nice for not only kayaks of different beam, but for varying your stroke---longer for relaxed horizontal stroke, low cadence, and shorten it for more vertical stroke and digging in.

Also interested in the paddle...but I'd need it shipped to Bend.  Let me know if the first offer falls through or not.

Thanks,

Don
