: I built several "spoon" paddles many years ago using
: 1/8" aircraft plywood from a hobby shop.
: Mine were knock off's of my racing "Lendal" (pre-wing). I
: raced and toured using these cheapo blades (no fiberglass),
: and that included the National championship. The paddles lasted at
: least 10 years before being replaced with GP's.

: The only pic I could find is from pre-digital camera days... Tom

Wow Tom, that's really going back in time .

I've actually been cleaning house lately, living elsewhere means the house gets kinda ignored, found my original Sony Maciva digital that took pix directly onto a 3.5 floppy, this thing is huge yet still works.
