An experienced paddler probably doesn't need to do this. I will send pictures asap. Thanks!

I have found I don't really need any grip tape on my paddle handle. Maybe I have just been lazy and not minded the plain paddle shaft. Send us some pics!

Went on super easy & seems to be staying on very well. I also used some as a grip on the shaft. I applied it like bicycle handle bar tape, but did not overlap each wrap since it would be too fat. I paddle up here in Washington State, near the Canadian border, flat water and downwind only. Thanks for the advice!
