HI all. I need help deciding what paddles to use. I just bought TYR Catalyst paddles size S. I am a male, 23 years old, weigh 150 and swim about 3-4 times a week. I would say that I am intermediate. Basically, I feel that the paddles provide too much resistance for me. Although, the Small size is what it recommened. I have no experience with paddles so I am un sure of how they are suppposed to feel. I am afriad that if I move a size smaller, my hands might be slightly too big for it. The XS is recommended for for males and females 11-12 years old. I am in a bind so any help would be appreciated!!!! Regards, Cliff :)

Well, Matt I agree that paddles depend upon individual people. When Iwas a kid I swam about 5 seconds with them on in practice than I did at a meet. Some people they might cause problems. I also like history. And when I think about Hannibal I also think about his Roman rival at Zama, Scipio Afrcanius. I'm better a little bit with Roman history than Greek.
