Wooden Greenland paddles by Rebel Kayaks

Now in production! Our Greenland paddles are now in production and are currently offered in 3 different models\sizes. All of them are made from Pacific Red Cedar and reinforced with edges of Fraxinus.
On the bottom of loom the shoulders is pronounced to create an index where your thumbs will sit. The top side is smoother for a softer grip of your palm on the paddle.  The advantage of  a wooden paddle is that you can adjust it a bit and customize it yourself  for a personal  grip or feel. You can just carve or sand away a little bit at the time until you find your "own grip. After you have been using it for a while you oil it again, and have the nice feeling of holding on to wood.
