Paddles
---------
How tall are you ? (Determines the paddle length to a degree)
Other considerations -
Paddle shaft material (ali / glass / carbon)
Paddle shaft design (straight / crank)
Paddle shaft - adjustable length and feather or non-adjustable
Paddle blade material (plastic / fibre (carbon/glass/mix etc))
Paddle blade design (traditional/wing but there are many variations)
Paddle blade size.......
Oh... and colour....
Are we having fun yet ?!
(Other things to consider : compass / flare / tow line / spare folding paddle / anchor / buyancy aid(often legally required to carry one in the kayak somewhere - normally on the deck...), kayak-wheels..... whistle, map, kitchen sink....)
