Peter's Comments:

Paddling with a Greenland style paddle is quite different than the Euro style paddle (a typical kayak paddle) and it will take a bit of practice and training to get used to it for most people but it is worth it.

It's much lighter than the Euro style and since the blade area is spread out more along the shaft it is much easier on the joints and muscles, meaning it is a lot less fatiguing.

You do get a lot wetter so be prepared for that!
