Product details
Our Reed KING Greenland paddle is a paddle in the style of those traditionally used by the Inuit of Greenland. It is characterized by long, narrow, tapering blades and a relatively short loom, or shaft, that is typically one-quarter and no more than one-third the length of the paddle. Unlike Inuit paddles across the Davis Strait, the loom is not carved in any way that would interfere with the sliding stroke.

 


A Greenland kayak paddle is narrow so the hand can grasp the blade near the end without having to grasp the tip, which on a traditional paddle is connected to the blade by a mortise and tenon joint. So the extreme width of a Greenland blade should be no wider than the paddler can grasp between the web of the thumb and the second joint of the forefinger. A paddle that has a blade too wide to grasp is not a Greenland paddle,because it cannot be used like one.


The Greenland paddle has become increasingly popular among sea kayakers in North America, Europe, and other parts of the world. Apart from its romantic association with the people who taught Europeans to kayak and to roll, the narrow-bladed Greenland paddle is popular because it is easy to brace and roll with and is not very susceptible to strong winds. Also, because it slips a little at the beginning of a stroke, it is easier on the muscles, and thus less fatiguing on day-long trips than wide-bladed “Euro”-style paddles. A further benefit for northern kayakers is that the Greenland kayak paddle is adapted for paddling in freezing conditions.The shoulders where the blades and loom meet make an ice-coated loom easier to grip, while the narrow ends of the blades, which are immersed in water while paddling, offer an ice-free grip for emergency braces and rolls.


The distinct surface on the carbon paddle allows for a firm grip, even when it gets wet. The paddle offers a high-friction surface just like a wooden paddle, yet feels smooth and, as such, protects against blisters on the hands.The joint is a hexagonal carbon fitting secured with a simple snap lock

Care information

How do I wash and care for my aquatherm and aquatherm fleece garments?

For Aquatherm®, Superstretch Aquatherm® and Aquatherm Fleece®: Turn garment inside out. Short, warm, delicate wash, max 40 degrees in mild soapy water, (not detergent). Rinse thoroughly and air dry. Do not spin. Do not wring. Do not tumble dry. Do not iron. Do not bleach. Do not dry over hot radiators or near excessive heat.

Hang garments from their cuffs and neck to ensure that if there should be any water ingress in the double fabric seals then it can drain easily.

Why is there water in the cuffs/neck seals of my aquatherm garment?

Sometimes the double fabric cuffs, neck & ankle seals make take in small amounts of water during use or when washed. This can be easily remedied when drying the garment by hanging it on the line by its cuffs, neck or ankle seals, thus allowing any water to drain out.

The possible ingress of water into cuffs, neck & ankle seals will not compromise the serviceability of your garment, it is due to taping on the knitted surface on the inside of the garments. The garment itself remains waterproof, keeping you dry and comfortable. We see any small ingress issue as a minor trade-off against the excellent features of a comfortable knitted surface on the inside of Reed garments and non-splitting, non-latex, comfortable double Aquatherm cuffs & seals.

How do I wash and care for my transpire fleece garments?

Turn inside out. Short, warm wash, max 40 degrees in mild soapy water. Rinse thoroughly. Air dry or spin. Warm iron. Do not bleach. May be dried over radiators but not on excessive heat. Very low heat tumble dry.
