In Response To: Re: rudder=blasphemy to inuit designs *Pic* (Dean Trexel)

Dean, you brought up some real good points, and I agree with them all. In fact, you touched on a sore point with me, the number of kayakers who haven't mastered rolling and paddle skills. Now, about the greenland style...the basic design evolved in use over time in the harshest environment around...seems pretty intuitive if you ask me...
