    The long paddle!!

    Looks great! Having a long paddle has completely changed my paddling. Mine is 93 1/2 inches long as stated in my previous post. It is my go to paddles. Both standing and kneeling! I can throttle down while kneeling and utilize the Northwoods stroke. The long blade offers so much power. It's...

    Unique paddle

    This shaft of this paddle is extreme. About the same circumference as an oar. No real flex. I definitely do not feel like it is going to snap. This is not heavy though. No real difference in weight compared to my 66 inch ST Northwoods. This has added a whole new dimension to my paddling. I...

    The Northwoods is key! That is indeed my prospector. Only a few more weeks until she is put in storage. How heavy is your 20 foot white? Are you cartopping it?

    Unique paddle

    Update The paddle is exactly what I was looking for. It is long enough for me to stand, heel, and utilize my correction strokes. Unlike the six foot paddle I was using previously. I was basically using my canoe like a paddle board,switching sides every few strokes. The stroke with this is...

    That's it! I won the auction last Sunday. It is no heavy at all. I will weigh it once I get a chance. When I started sanding the blade I thought it was Cedar. Now that I see the grain I'm not too sure. Thank's for the great information. It is very much appreciated. I am finishing up work for the...

    Northwoods paddle

    Your paddle looks incredible! I would live to find one of those someday. The way I use my Northwoods is with short quick strokes. Grip hand is facing the same direction as my bottom hand. (Thumb facing down the shaft ) There is more torso than arm movement. This just seems like a more efficient...

    Northwoods paddle

    ​ ​ ​ I received my S&T Northwoods paddles about a month and am seriously impressed. 66 inches long and made from Sasafrass. Sometime in the early Spring I found myself utilizing the Northwoods stroke without knowing what it was or really why I was doing it. After some research I decided to...

    Swift Keewaydin 16 -- Opinions, Experience?

    Check out a Hemlock.Eagle. I have been using an Eagle solo/tandem for a few years. Fantastic boat. I have compared it against both the Kee and Northstar. The Eagle wins hands down in my opinion.

    Ordering parts or gear? USPS Caution

    USPS has been a mess for months. It took nearly one month for me to receive a paddle which was located four hours from me.
