Of course if they replaced all their paddles that broke they be out of business .

I broke 4 of their crappy sticks and had to pay through the nose to get them replaced.

Bought a Werner and never looked back!!! It's still going three years later. I never had an AT last 3 months.

AT is the ONLY kayaking company I've ever had any problems with and I've dealt with alot.

YMMV
