Hand Grip during the stroke

Does anybody know of a video that one can review to assess ones hand grip on the paddle. The question I am trying to answer is: during the stroke does the paddle shaft rotate in a circular manner in the hand? I find myself doing this on my left hand only in order to get the proper angle of the paddle when setting up for the catch phase of the stroke. I use the small wing epic paddle at a setting of R 45. Any input would be very appreciated.

Nothing unusual in rotating the shaft in one hand or the other, paddle offset is personal preference.

Get a app called :"Coaches Eye" and film yourself, you can slow it down and analyze your grip, what ever you like.
