To me zero feels horrible, and if I set the shaft loose so it can find its own angle, it will naturally find its way to 45 which is what i am used to. From what i have read using zero does not require zero wrist movement, but symmetric wrist movement on each side. In other words there is no longer a single dominant hand. Maybe someone who has successfully paddled both ways can comment as I am only passing on hearsay.

-The forearm of my lower hand is pointing slightly downwards during the stroke on that side.
When I lift that hand up to use the other side, then the forearm is pointing upwards.
NOT MOVING my wrist, the blade on the second side CANNOT possibly enter the water at the same angle as on the first side AT ZERO FEATHER, isn’t it? The paddle NEEDS to be twisted!
