The gently sloped transition between the loom and blade draws on a classic Inuit design to ensure quick hand-positioning, increased leverage, and intuitive paddle control.
All new 3D carbon construction intertwines the full paddle with continuous strands of aero-grade carbon fiber resulting in superior strength and weight reduction.
The 1.1mm sharp blade slices the water efficiently, while Gearlab’s patented third-generation replaceable ProTek tips protect IPIK from damage.
Constructed with seamless carbon fiber to ensure the most comfortable, streamlined and durable paddling experience.
Meticulously engineered, the Kalleq edge measures 1.1 mm at its thinnest point. The smoothness of this edge guarantees complete comfort while the paddle slices the water with unparalleled efficiency.
Gearlab’s signature ProTek tip design means an easily replaceable tip provide confidence in rocky or shallow waters, and the option to customize a paddle with colored tips.
The world’s first Greenland style paddle with replaceable ProTek tips. The Akiak is the perfect entry level carbon fiber paddle for optimal balance between efficiency and comfort.
Greenland style paddle blades make contact with the water covering roughly the same surface area as Euro-blades, but the even distribution results in a smoother stroke and more control in the water.
Akiak tributes to the meaning of bravery in Inuit.
