Gearlab Outdoors Classic Akiak Paddle,
Make a splash on the world?s longest nonstop paddling race
This world-famous event, a gruelling endurance race across the State of Missouri, is the perfect place for Gearlab Outdoors? classic greenland paddles to make a splash. Greenland paddles are born for this kind of event as they are lightweight and ergonomic, favouring efficiency and endurance over brute power. Just the sort of attributes one is going to need to stand a chance of completing this paddler?s marathon. Gearlab paddles are famed for being the pinnace of their craft, propelling the kayaker forward with minimum effort and providing substantial shoulder relief during prolonged use, when compared to their euro-blade cousins.
The special-edition carbon fiber ?Akiak? is the perfect tool for the job, providing the paddler with versatile, efficient power in any and all conditions. Akiak means ?bravery? in Inuit, which could not be more appropriate for the MR340, the ultimate test of stamina and endurance. Painted a beautiful cool green and emblazoned with the logo of the MR340, the infamous skull and crossed paddles it is sure to attract attention and invite questions whenever it's used.
Gearlab Outdoors has been strongly committed to environmental protection and ecological restoration, playing its part to raise awareness about the importance of marine health and the threats to ocean ecosystems . It has forged strong ties with local paddling associations worldwide and hopes to make more contributions to these important causes in the future.
