Hi Robbo
Sad for your recent lose, but good on you for helping the kids.
If you have not already check out the Kia Kaha paddle range. Woogie just made me one with a kevlar-carbon shaft and it is great in the surf. You might also save a bit of your Rudd money if you go direct through him and Jodie. They are great to deal with and will look after you. I highly rate their paddles.
