Does anyone know anything about the Plastex Bionic paddle? I could only find a few thumbnail pics of what looks like a teardrop paddle with ribs. Even the Plastex site couldn`t give any info (although I did notice that at least one Chinese company is already making copies!). Are they trying to keep the images secret until after the Olympics, or is it just a lemon? I presume a smaller paddle with more grip, whilst not making so much difference to overall pull under water, would have less resistance against the wind on recovery?

Here`s a link to the Chinese manufacturer with some photos of the paddles:
