Conceptually this is a great product because it is of very high quality and not too expensive compared to purchasing a new paddle. I would like to see several options provided. 1) there should be several texture options. My second paddle still has a noticeble higher content of texture (SELKIRK X5). 2) I would highly recommend selling 8x11 sheets so they can be applied (trimming to size) to any paddle. I hightly recommend this product, but as is, if your paddle is not a PIKKL paddle, you will probably have small portiions on your paddle void of skin. It absolutely does not impact performance, it just looks a little odd.
