For all enthusiasts who want to make their own wooden 2 pc Greenland paddle.
The joint is made of carbon and is very lightweight: in fact, it is even lighter than the wooden part of the paddle it replaces.
After making a few such paddles ourselves, we were convinced that it works perfectly.
The workmanship is very precise. The paddle is easy to assemble, but disassembly requires some effort due to the vacuum created in the system. The good thing is that there is no slack. There is a mechanism with a button that fixes the joint.
In addition to being more convenient to transport in two parts, the split Greenland paddle can also be used as a spare or second paddle and carried under the kayak’s deck elastics. We often do this and change occasionally the paddle we are paddling with.
