C-Forum

Hi! I'm looking for a Blast for sale. I'm heading to the Haute-Gatineau Festival in Maniwaki this weekend, we can do the trade there. Thanks!

Having made the transition from a detonator to a l'edge, I can tell the Detonator is much faster, and is a REALLY great boat. I think you see less on the river because : 1. many ppl bought a l'edge (in fact, you see less different boats on the water, almost only l'edges...) 2. most ppl learn on a de...

Hey Dooley, could your videos be a little longer? We don't see much of any rivers you paddle, only some short shots... I guess you want to keep the footage for The Canoe Movie 2, but come on... Anyway nice descent, congratulations, you're pushing the sport forward!

Just wondering... isn't having your toes under the footpegs a recipe for disaster? If your hull gets hit by a boulder, or is bent when pinning, isn't the footpegs gonna chop your toes off? It has always been a fear of mine, so I personnally keep my toes on the footpegs.

Vid Here . Just saw this on another forum, where the poster wanted to know "What are peoples thoughts on the guy that goes straight to"GO" in the rescue????" Personally, I don't agree with the "don't put yourself in any danger" idea of dealing with rescues now so popular... How about you? I personn...

Hi! I'm getting tired of my wetsuit/drytop setup, and I am looking for a kokatat drysuit, size medium, for men, with a relief zipper, socks and a skirt tunnel. Let me know if you have one for sale or know a good deal somewhere! Thanks!

I had the same problem before : my canoe would turn to my offside when I boofed. What I did was to paddle against an arc, as some have suggested before. Then I realized that boofing was not all about having a very strong book stroke. What you need is good forward momentum, a nice forward stroke (ver...

Hey Joshua, I see you have tried the Big Dog Force Turret. Is it / will it be produced and sold somewhere? I'm really looking forward to this boat!

Wow thanks for the reply! Nice pic by the way!

Hi all! I have an opportunity to buy a habitat, I'm about 140lb, how is the hull? Flat or round? Has anyone ever converted it to a C1? I'm interested to know if it's a good C1, sharp on eddys, fast, etc,etc! Thanks!

If you run these things often, then just paddle your deto till it's dead, not worth the repair. Then buy a plastic boat.

I'm from Québec, so we don't have that many big volume creeks (well according to me). I thought that the Jefe grande was a little too big. On the other hand, the mamba 7.5 seems to be kinda small. I think the 8.0 would be appropriate. Anyway I think I will wait for an 8.0 or a Jefe around 600$. Than...

I have the same cracks on my deto, one on each side of the hull. What I did was open them enough to fill the space between plastic and foam with liquid epoxy. I previously let it dry for some days. Finalle, I mixed epoxy with pure silice (don't know what's the word in english) so it would get thicke...

Hi all, I've searched the boards extensively on potential C1 creekers. However, I have many choices of used kayaks, and I want to be sure of which one to choose according to my specs and needs. So right now, I'm looking for a creek boat, I used to paddle a Detonator, which I now find too big and wet...
