In Response To: Re: Paddle: Greenland vs Double Paddle (Kudzu)

I've just finished and started using a Red Cedar GP,up untill now I was strictly Euro.
After the first tenitive ten minutes I began to like it.
Rolling with it is incredably easy and fun.
I've noticed it dosent have the bracing area of the Euro in choppy water,but I feel confident this will come with practice.
There are lots of people on this forum who use them in surf,and of course its non feathered which I'm not use to.
Definetly a lot easier on shoulders which for me(just got over frozen shoulder, 6 months out of the sport )is a real plus.
I'm super glad to have it in the kit, I just never would have known how good they are to use if I had'nt made it.
Get one and try it ,I doubt you'll regret it.
Cheers BP
