NFO tried them but the cost and the low demand ended that.
I don't know of any out there. There was one other company but it is out of business due to legality of the co. name.
I like my oars about 8" apart (the end of the handles when oars are straight out to the side) Any more and they are not comfortable.
Shorter oars on the packable boats are in my opinion not long enough.
As far as rowing straight, it will come, but I don't notice any unusual abuse to my hands and I am a girl.
It IS more productive to row backwards, forward is awkward, but all in getting use to it
