Choosing the Right Blade
Here's what we know about blade design:
- A blade that slips less in the water loses less of the work generated at the handle.
- Changing the shape, curvature, features at the tip will impact blade interaction with the water.
- As a blade becomes more effective it will generate more load and require a decrease in oar length.
- As blade designs have become more efficient, controlled testing has indicated improved performance speeds.
