C-Forum

hey issac I don't think anyone would be racing a toreau unless it was a down river race/ creek race.

side note : since we all complain about the size of the cockpit has anyone talked to Jaque to see if he has plans to mold a big skirt friendly rim on that puppy, I think it would make a great c1 ...

Issac- yeah you better get back to montana while we still have water. CLiffside is "in" a little flat but would be real fun in your long boats I'll tell you this its real fun in the FLIRT .
Looing forward to having you on the westslope and getting you in the water.
C ya when I smell ya-

i sit at a solid 200 lbs and I love my
Fluid Flirt I am in the large way big, not to big for me but it is large a friend of mine just got a medium and he is about 150 and loves it.

I would recomend looking at a Fluid they are great boats!!!

I have been using a 3m spray adhesive for foam ( 3m super 90) it works great at bonding foam to foam and foam to royalex. would certainly not use it for vynal to royalex.
anyway has worked great in the past , all the same rules apply as vynabond as far as application , but I think there are less ...

The white water blade with the ergo shaft from h20 is great!!!!! Have used one and i think it is awesome . the paddle itself doesn't look(visually) great but blade catches well and the chaft is carbon. the only problem I had with it was rolling. takes a little getting used to but great ...

Bear Boater-
Already got my Flirt outfitted and paddled Black foot the other night, too bad we are at flood stage and there were no real rapids, just big waves,
An YES I LOVE MY FLIRT
and to answer the other question I, have a demon galasport paddle cut at 54 inches now after paddling the h20 ...

ez water -
my open boat blade is 59 inches and I like it. But with my new boat ( Flirt) there is no way I could use that long of a paddle.
I know what bent shafts are!! what I should have said is an ergonomic kink in the shaft of the paddle with 0 degree bend. :)

I was really just kinda wondering ...

just tried out the new h2o c1 blade, do not know the name of it but it really nice. Any way the paddle I was trying was a 52 inch paddle bent shaft. I liked the quickness of the paddle from power stroke to power stroke. I am currently using a 54 inch stright shaft is it the shaft the size or the ...

My friends and I had the same problem with the CU FLY we all had great rolls in our bigger ocs and then we flailed in the cufly, we removed the hip blocks out of it and it enabled us to roll, i don't know if you have hip blocks but thats what worked for us. good luck

try playak.com there is some sweet stuff for c-1 trick intrsuction

yeah I think you should cut the paddle to a 55.5 and adjust for the t-grip length but hey do what you want

I am in the process of switching to a Flirt from a cu fly for some more exciting and practical play. I find rolling a c-1 so easy ( compared to Oc) that sometimes I roll all the way over again. keep the practice in the pool and u will get it!!!!!!!

By the wa \y whoever said the cu- would be a good ...
