I've had the same problem happen with one of my Hobie paddles. It sounds like you got lucky that first time though! Hobie would not replace mine, but they were kind enough to offer me a discount on a new Hobie paddle. Other than that their customer service has been extraordinary! In fact, they just replaced my Revolution at no cost because of a problem with it.

To replace my broken paddle, I bought an Adventure Technology fiberglass paddle. Its a great paddle, just not super light. If you can afford carbon fiber, you'll definitely love it. But when having a kayak with peddles, carbon fiber is a bit over kill. haha
