Hey guys! I'm looking for an extra paddle, something like the ones that come with your kayak stock, even if it's stuck as a one piece when it used to be a two piece. Looking to spend $50 or less, if you have one laying around collecting dust and you will be at Albion, hit me up! Thanks!

Walmart had these amazing kayak paddles.. 2 piece.. regular price less than $20.  Not the usual soft plastic stuff.  Worth a call over there or online search...

I recently bought a nice paddle for $20 at walmart after realizing I left mine at home like a noob.  Came with a measuring tape on it.  pretty sweet paddle.

Ive been wondering about these seen a few on craigslist around that price and thought dam those are expensive.   But now my curiosity getting the best of me are they really that much better and worth it?  So they are lighter and what faster? 
Ps sorry on the hijack

I good, light paddle makes a big difference in my opinion. $200 is an average price for a decent paddle.. A lot of paddles approach $350-400. Material, blade shape, handle shape all make a difference. Whenever I use a cheap paddle for any reason I realize why I have some high dollar paddles now.

I have a 220cm Aqua Bound Tripper paddle that I am not using anymore. 2 piece fiberglass shaft. Would that work for you?

 Our Werner is very light.  It ran in the +$400's when we bought it.  I may just end up using in on my OB if we can't sell it.

@Krusty,

P-Sherman is checking on an extra for me when he gets home this evening. If that doesn't work out I'd be interested. I'll let you know. Thanks!

Roger,  I'm pretty sure I have an extra paddle laying around.  It's a two piece with an aluminum shaft and it's yours if you want it.  I'll throw it in my van and you can pick it up at Albion.  I'm arriving Wednesday.  How many Uni bombs is a fair trade?  I just checked and it's a Bending Branches Whisper.

Man, what's the length on that? $200 for a bent shaft werner's a great deal.

Martin! Thanks buddy, you know if you stop by Shuland you can have as many Uni-bombs, Abalone Bombs, and Hamachi bombs as you want!
