I find it interesting that some guys "feather" (twist) the blade when they bring it out of the water you can see Danny doing it a bit in the end of that vid, pretty sure I saw Travis doing it in a clip I was watching as well. Wonder if that's a hold over from paddling an OC 1?

A lot of the blade in and out of the water movements remind me of rowing (racing shells).

It's cool to watch danny paddle. I know myself after doing Woogie's clinic i had to slow myself down abit and concentrate more on tech but it's all starting to pay off after a few weeks.
I tell everyone, trying to change your paddle tech after 3 years is crazy hard so if you are a beginner please do yourself a favour and do a woogie class. You will love it and only better yourself for it.
Or get someone to flim yourself paddling, and you will see all your bad habits most of which you won't even know you are doing until you watch the footage.
Danny has a life time of experiance coming from oc paddling, so it's no wonder he is so good.
