im hoping to get a new paddle for my kayak soon its a robson pogo and im not sure witch one to get the fibre glass or the carbon version im an all round kayaker so i like playing and river running just incase these become important in choosing the different materials
I am mostly a recreational paddler (not particularly whitewater). I have used both, and in my opinion the carbon or carbon fiber paddle is by far the best. The biggest reason is that they are quite a bit lighter which saves considerable energy over the long haul. The draw back is of course that they are more expensive. Like anything else, you get what you pay for. Hope this helps.

I bought a basic, recreational kayak. I am 5′3” . What length/weight and adjustability do I need to look for? What is something inexpensive but easy to use that I can buy?
It depends on the width of your boat, your height to determine the length of your paddle.
Low Angle:
Height:5-6′2” Boat width:21"-24" Length: 220cm
Height:5-6′2” Boat width:24"-28" Length: 230cm
Height:5-6′2” Boat width:Over 28" Length: 240cm
Most Carbon or Fiberglass paddles are a little bit pricy. You can buy those paddles for entry level paddlers made by polypropylene. It ranges from $40-$150, I guess.
