Ethical Paddling…Continued…

Given the huge amount of interest generated by our post of the 22nd July concerning the Ethical Spanking Paddle, we figured that interest in ‘paddling’ was high…

Wikipedia, that source of all knowledge, helps out with a definition of the ‘paddle’ as a good starting point:

“usually a wooden instrument with a long, flat face and narrow neck, so called because it is roughly shaped like the homonymous piece of sports equipment, but existing in more varied sizes and dimensions, (length, width and thickness)”

This much we had however already established.

You can find out more information and tips about ethical paddling after the jump…

The main advice on ethical paddling was as follows:

– Paddle responsibly to avoid accidents
– Dress appropriately
– Never paddle alone
– Don’t paddle under the influence of alcohol

– Leave no waste
