Mine break because I do everything I can to put them between my head and my board whenever I fall. The 27 North Kevlar Surf paddle sacrifices a bit of weight savings for the sake of durability, but for a paddle I am only surfing with, that's fine.

I used to break a lot of paddles until Brian Keaulana taught me to "start in first gear"
