brambor Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 Came home from a trip and at my doorstep is a newly delivered Aleutian Paddle that I ordered a few months ago. I unpack it and it is beautiful except I am taken aback by the blade dimensions. I have always assumed that Aleutian paddles have their blades wider than Greenland paddles. Under this assumption I ordered one, thinking I would use it in situations where quick burst of speed would be beneficial i.e. SurfingMy new Aleutian paddle has almost same dimensions as my Greenland paddle. I guess I should have educamated my self with some fancy booklearnin about what I ordered. ;-)Before I do the Google thing could someone give me some 101 of Aleutian paddles?

EEL Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 Rene: If you ask about the paddle on the Greenland kayaking forum at following site I suspect you will get all the info you might want about the paddle. There have been discussions in the past on Aluet paddles so by searching the archives you might find answers too. http://www.qajaqusa.org/ Ed Lawson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
