In Response To: Paddle: Storm measurements (Brian Ervin)
: Where can I find measurements for a storm paddle. I have found much info on
: GPs but none on Storms.
A true storm paddle is generally sized about one armspan long (about the same measurement as your height). The loom is commonly one, two or three fists wide. Due to their nature these paddles are often made a little more stout than a typical "cruising" Greenland paddle. Storm paddles are briefly discussed in Chuck Holst's excellent directions for making a Greenland paddle at http://www.qajaqusa.org/QK/makegreen2.pdf.
