Funny thing is, I liked the way it paddled, too, and also thought it was too heavy. So, I made a wood/glass copy of it. Paddled every bit as nice as Derek's, but it weighed even more (I seriously overbuilt it). I decided to stick with my Greenland paddles for most uses, and a Lightning Offshore (Which has some nice qualities about it like the Toksook, and weighs a lot less) for times when I feel like using a euro.
