Gearlab’s Pikatti is the first carbon fiber norsaq paddle.

The Aleut and Inuit people used Norsaqs as a leverage tool to add power when throwing harpoons. The dwarf paddle sat on top of their kayak and helped them roll when their Greenland paddle was dropped. Norsaqs - also known as rolling sticks, rolling pins, throwing sticks, atlatl, and woomera - are now rarely used as originally intended with harpoons, but they remain a tool used in many styles of Greenland rolls.

Fun for Rolling

Pikatti means “companion” in the Inuit language and, indeed, this Norsaq serves as a paddler’s partner for challenging rolls.

The Pikatti retains the traditional Inuit shape, but utilises Gearlab Outdoors' modern composite carbon fibre to produce a strong, light and buoyant norsaq.  With its catchy Gearlab logo, the Pikatti is certain to be a fun Norsaq for rolling.
