Greenland paddle# G Sea

Directly inspired by the paddle shapes used by the Inuit for their long sea voyages, the G Sea is designed for long-distance kayaking in exposed and rough conditions.
Over time, you'll appreciate the benefits of this model and feel privileged to be the bearer of this ancestral know-how.
Its thinness reduces its resistance to the wind.
The combination of cedar as the core material and ash on the surface provides a good compromise between lightness, flexibility/rigidity and robustness. With a grip area that keeps the elbows relatively close to the torso.
To be effective, the G Sea does not require intensity, but rather flexibility, continuity and a certain sensitivity. Always in the right orientation, the movement of the hand and wrist is reduced to the essential: the use of the fingers. This limits the amplitude of movement and therefore the strain on the body over miles.
For durability, the blades are protected at their ends with a reinforced epoxy strip and hardwood edging.
