Additional information

Storm Paddle info.

The storm paddle is a shorter version of a standard Greenland paddle but with a shorter loom. This shape offers significantly less resistance to wind since nearly three quarters of the paddle disappears into the water on each stoke. This requires the development of the specialized slide-stroke where the hands slide up and down the non-paddled blade with each stroke.

Storm paddles are made from dimensions used to make a full sized paddle and then the loom length reduced to 8 inches.
