I am new myself, but from what I've been told and/or gleened from posts is that one way to measure is to stand the paddle on end, reach up and your fingers should fold over to about the 2nd joint. Also would depend on whether your stroke is "high" or more horizontal maintaining "the box" with your arms never going higher than your shoulders, forcing you to use a torso turn, which is supposedly less fatiguing.
