Re: th_up I firmly agree, handpaddles force you to use better form, therefore improving your overall roll <NT> tiskemanis New

with hp's i can roll like mad with no form setup or anything just grab some water and up i go

you will need to watch your form

one thing i lost was my brace with hp's your hands are in the water all the time and you brace instantly, naturally without conscious thought to it.

then with the stick your brace is slower and you may have a tendency to flip the first few runs after you go back to the stick.

that is what i found but that was after using hp's for a season with no use of the stick
