I'm not afraid to break with tradition.
I started paddling my solo canoe, with a double bladed paddle, long before it became mainstream.
There is a local seakayak club, that I've paddled with a few times, and Greenland style kayak paddles seem to be very popular.
What I keep hearing from Greenland paddlers is that once they tried the Greenland, they never looked back.
They absolutely love them.
I've tried "European style" low angle paddles and didn't really like them. I go for a high angle model.
So maybe I'm crazy for wanting to try a Greenland, in my canoe, but I do.
My biggest complaint, with paddling a canoe with a double bladed paddle, is all the water that ends up in the boat.
I hear that there is a lot less dripping off a Greenland paddle. That alone might make it worth the switch.
Anyone else tried paddling their canoe with a Greenland paddle?
