Where to go on the front range for a new paddle

Looking for who to hit up for good pricing and selection. BOC and the paddle shop only seem to have a few, but if that's typical I'm happy to give them my moolah.

Thanks.

CKS will have the largest selection, but you'll have to order it via phone or internet. Order it today before 3ish, and it will be at your house tomorrow.

good info, everyone.

I'm a class III boater and am generally looking for a big blade to help with rolls, braces and grabbing water. My current paddle is 45 degree offset, but from what I've gathered it seems 30 would be better. Length- high 190s I was guessing - I', 5'8" and use and RPM.

thanks
