The Paddles

Take-a-part Greenland and Aleut carbon fiber kayak paddles

Sectional Greenland Paddle:

Actually you are getting two paddles when you order the Greenland paddle: Along with the loom length you specify, we also include a short loom insert which mates the two paddle blades together, converting your paddle to a Storm Paddle with a two-fisted loom (6.5 in/16.5 cm) loom. Our paddle blades are made with a 3.25 inch length already molded in from the shoulder of the paddle blade which must be taken into account when ordering your loom size. Greenland paddle blades are 3.45 inches or 8.77 cm wide at the tip, with distinct but comfortable shoulders at the blade root. We're happy to discuss sizing with you prior to your purchase, call or email. $375.00

Aleut-inspired
Paddle

Our three piece Aleutian inspired paddle is pretty unique. We deviated from having the traditional ridge running all the way down the paddle. We also made the "flat" side slightly concave which we believe truly gives you two paddles in one. The ridged side gives superb control and stability while the slightly curved side took on a lot of qualities we associate with wing paddles. The result is noticeably increased performance for speed and workout paddling. We love this paddle for its versatility! Traditionally an Aleutian paddle is about 4 inches longer (on average) and this is reflected mostly in the loom. Why? We don't really know but perhaps it was because of the width of the baidarkas used in the Islands? Plenty of room for speculation, but possibly something to consider for sizing.  the Aleutian measures 3.7 inches wide (9.4cm) $375.00 

Edging by special order

We are now offering additional style and edge protection with white or black epoxy edging. This treatment is available by special order for a small fee on either blade type. The blades don't need additional protection, but it just looks so cool, and only adds a couple grams to weight. Edge treatment runs all the way to the paddle shoulder and tapers off nicely.$25.00 additional

Paddle sizing

Our Aleutian paddles are normally fitted with an 18 inch center loom resulting in a 90 inch paddle.  Our center looms for either our Greenland or Aleutian paddle go up to 18 inches but we can always glue additional loom sections to it to produce longer looms for our customers who have very wide boats or are very tall.

Loom dimensions are 1.47" x 1.17" with a soft rectangle profile. Call or email for questions about sizing your paddle.
