[color=red:d8741ba59a][b:d8741ba59a]I like both but i would much rather have a split paddle than hand paddles because i probably would be in for a beating if i was doing upper classes W/ my outdoor school club...[/color:d8741ba59a][/b:d8741ba59a]

I use both but normally keep the hand paddles for solo stuf and the lendal 4way split for group use and harder water! mainly caus of the lovely temperature of the uk boating season!

I should have a new breakdown 4-piece waiting for me when I get home today. It will be the backup, and there's no way I'd rely on hand paddles, too far to paddle in most cases. Of course if you were just doing 'park 'n play' stuff I suppose the handles would do.
