Shoulder injuries

For getting back into paddling, a wind
paddle might help. I injured my left shoulder years ago and my Onno Full Tour was creating a lot of pain. It was my favorite until the pain started.

I now use a Swift Wind Paddle, which is more GP than Euro. I can now paddle much further with no pain.

String, is it a matter of weight

or blade size and design that was so helpful to you?

I looked at the Swift Wind (now Eddyline) but can't figure out what a carbon 210 cm would weigh. My Cyprus weighs 23 ounces (just weighed it on my baker's scale).
