subject: [Paddlewise] Artic Tern vs Artic Fox

I just finished my first (I have been given to believe that it won't be
my last and I'll eventually end up with a lot of them) Greenland paddle
(sorta lumpy) and now want to try and build a stich and glue Greenland
style kayak.  Do any of you out there have any experience and strongly
held opinions about how either Pygmy's Artic Tern or CLC's Artic Fox
paddles??  I have Sea Kayaker's review of the Artic Tern.

The only opinions that I've heard is from someone that has a kevlar
Artic Fox (not CLC's).  She said that it weather cocked.  Pygmy's web
site says their Artic Tern does not weather cock.

Thanks, you can reply off line and not clog up the list if you want to.

Can't wait to start this project, but I have to clean out the garage
first!
