you need to renew paid membership

I tried to contact support, but that seems to be only available to paid members as well so I'm kinda stuck

Ok thanks for your reply. I thought maybe I needed to renew so I went to the shopping cart but it says "You are only allowed to purchase one of this product, and you have already done so." So I don't know what to try next.

How can I PM a member? Thanks, John

I plan to be there.. Hoping to work on Greenland paddle strokes!

Would it make sense to put this event on the calendar? I can do it but as a forum noobie I don't want to step on any toes!

Did anyone get started on these sessions early? I'm very interested in doing this as a regular thing starting next week if a 9am tooth extraction permits :-( I'd very much like to get some coaching on Greenland style canted forward strokes, if anyone is up to it. Cheers, John

Looking forward to that!

+1 Hope they have plenty of room!

Ed, thanks for the info. Great to hear from someone with direct experience with these paddles. Did you make one from one of the Superior blanks? Seems like one could trim the blade width and reprofile the edges during the finishing out process. Any experience with their two piece option? Tried any carbon paddles? Many thanks, John

Hey Bill, Thanks for documenting your process. We walk the same path it seems. You have asked many more stimulating questions than have been answered, which is not to say that progress has not been made! I have two AYC planks I've been meaning to turn into shoulderless paddles. Maybe we should get together and work on this. I don't know about you, but this would make it much more likely that these paddles would become a reality. What do you think about the superior hollow shaft paddle blanks? $175 for cnc blanks that could easily be made shoulderless. An expedient route to a new paddle? It looks like there is a two piece option as well. I'm not too hot on pine for paddles however Best, John

Wow! Excellent article. Thanks for the tip.

Can someone tell me the location of the greased pole launching site? Parking situation? Many thanks, John

I'm interested, and hope to recruit some Concord companions as well. Not familiar with the launch location. What is round trip the Kettle? Its a "super" moon you know ;-) Thanks, John

Oh, I hadn't seen this on the calendar. Thanks for organizing it. I hope to make it next week and beyond. Best, John
