Is anyone using the 7.5 wide v drive paddle around my weight of 95 kgs or is it to small I'm unable to demo one.

The 91sq" should be good for you. its very hard to say on the interweb though. How tall are you?
the various shaft options can have a big impact too, me personally I use the Elite Flyweight shaft but then I cut my paddles down to about 61" - 63" total so the Flyweight works well.
The round tapered shaft is the stiffest with the oval tapered next.

I'm 6'3" and 95 kilos and have both the 101 and 91 V Drives... I find the 91 too small for everything but the surf, so pretty much stick to the 101.
