So far I've good luck with Hobie products

None have broken this far. Yes they are more expensive but they have never let me down yet

I have some Werner Skagit FG IM paddles and they're pretty nice; CF/Blend shaft with fiberglass blades. As nice as they are I do feel a little flex on the blade if I dig deep, which is probably because they have a low-angle blade type. What I'm getting at is I think it would be favorable to have a CF blade as well.
