It was discontinued by Werner because, they told me, there was little interest. The paddle came only in lengths greater than 8 feet and up to 9 feet, if I remember correctly. The blades were narrow and long similar to a Greenland, but they were modern fiberglass blades that you could not grip like a wood Greenland. It was therefore not possible to cut them shorter because that would force you to grip it at the blade. The looms were round. I enjoyed the paddle and am now sorry I sold it.
