Yes yes yes. The Sandilines are nice. I have one--quite comfortable and low profile, but only really use it for training and racing because I am somewhat doubtful as to how much good it would do if I were swimming down a rapid. Plus it doesn't really float me on my back. There is a note inside which...

I'm a righty for everything except paddling. I paddle on my left. I never switch sides except for fun on flatwater. Switching sides is slower than cross strokes, but it is applicable in downriver racing where you don't want to wear out specific muscle groups. Aaron, surfing on your offside will beco...

Okay, here's my take. The Lizard is a nice boat. I have an '06 model cut down 10 cm by the company (I think that is essentially the '07). I weigh about 140lbs (63.5 kg) and have a large, which is a bit big for me, but the extra volume helps keep the boat up in pushy water, and the stern can still be...

Another note about that website. It seems the 5th race of the World Series is going to be held at the ASCI course next year. I personally can't wait. I hope all of the top paddlers travel to the US to race. It'll be pretty neat being able to watch Martikan race in person--assuming he would come to t...

I bet if if a clone was made of Alden he and his clone could do pretty well in the C-2. Warning: Alden, if the USACK wants to meet with you about "the future of slalom"--well, I have stated their actual intentions above. Oh, yes, and another thing about Martikan. Imagine you are good enough to win a...

Isaac, I believe you touched on an important point in most of the top paddler's styles when you said they were subtle. Not only does Martikan use his lower body subtly, but notice when he is paddling forward, he does not lean forward and backwards as much, and does not seem to be desperate when he i...

It would be AWESOME if that race was at WISP or just in the US period. I'd love to see it at WISP, and go down and watch those top guys race. Funny, I thought I saw that poll about a month ago and WISP had the lowest percentile (I remember 2 %), but that seems to have changed. I guess you must have ...
