Peter's Comments:

I do find the bent shaft helps reduce joint and muscle pain/fatigue as it straightens out the wrists and arm during paddling. So, for those with pain in the muscles and joints from paddling, a bent shaft paddle can help. A lightweight paddle will also help too.

I have to include a statement that poor paddling technique can also lead to muscle and joint pain/fatigue as well, so make sure your technique is good before putting some money down on a bent shaft paddle like this one.
