Malik - Carbon Fibre Shaft is a great solution for kayakers fresh to Greenland-style paddling, kayak clubs or a cool spare paddle. The blade is made of polypropylene, a scratch resistant and impact proof material. In this edition, the shaft and ferrule are made with 100% carbon fibre, allowing a 100 gram weight reduction compared to the fibreglass version.
You have researched and heard the benefits of a Greenland style paddle.
Now is the chance to try one with Gearlab’s new polypropylene paddle, the Malik.
The Malik is shaped and designed with several iconic features from Gearlab’s premium paddles. The popular exchangeable ProTek tips and solid D-Joint grips are all built-in to the Malik.
Lighter than water, Stronger than Steel: Polypropylene carries a specific gravity of 0.9, which means it floats and is lighter than water.
Pound for pound, it is also stronger than steel. This makes Malik a great solution for kayakers new to Greenland-style paddling and a perfect paddle to learn an Inuit roll.
