What to Bring to a Greenland Kayak class
- Bring your own kayak, spray skirt, and PFD, or let me know if you need equipment.
Although most sea kayaks respond successfully to traditional techniques, some perform
better than others do, such as those that are narrow (23” or less), low-volume, with a low
stern deck. I recommend the following kayaks for this class. A secure-fitting spray skirt is
important. Some traditional paddles will be available. Dress comfortably and bring layers
appropriate to the day's weather. For rolling practice in cooler weather I recommend using
a wet suit or dry suit (or dry top). Participants should bring a picnic lunch. Other handy
items include a water bottle, a strap for glasses, and nose clips (though I have a few extras
to loan).
If you do not already own your own Greenland traditional kayak qajaq paddle then check out

paddles and, single blade sea kayak & canoe paddles, in a wide variety of styles and
options. Pick from their in stock catalog or order a paddle custom made to fit you. All of
their paddles are handmade so let them make a paddle that fits you.
