Woodland Canoe Paddle
This paddle features a finely tipped blade with a quiet entry much like the Sliver but the paddle widens out much more up top to give more surface area and therefore a little more catch in the middle part of the stroke where the most power is desired.
This paddle was the first to feature Mike’s version of a North Woods grip which allows for the choice of more positions to place your top hand.
The grip is also straighter on top as opposed to our traditional grip which is much more rounded, for those who prefer a more aggressive grip and do not want the rounded grip for “palming the paddle”. This paddle is well suited to tripping and recreational paddling.
Known as the “Cecebe” in Europe, this paddle was designed with the help of Wolfgang from the CCB Corinthian Canoe Base in Austria. In Canada the paddle is known as the Woodland – named in honour of our late friend and mentor Kirk Wipper. Kirk was best known as the founder of the Canadian Canoe Museum, but he was also a renowned outdoor educator, camp steward and a true Woodsman.
Available in Cherry and sometimes available in other specialty woods such as Walnut, Ash, Sassafras, Tulipwood…Can be oiled, varnished or given our special combination finish of an oiled shaft and varnished blade, as well as our vibrantly tinted WaterColours™ finish. Personalized laser engravings and hand painted designs are also available.
Includes a Badger Paddle Sock for transport and storage.
