I've been a 'supporting member' on other forums in the past. I'd suggest doing a 'members only' avatar designation and offer a t-shirt/tuque/towel/sticker/whatever every year with a $20~40 annual subscripton. Something tangible for the money along with the subcription. All members, suscribed or not ...

Darnit Google! I was all pumped-up for this until I saw you did the animation of a butt-boater!?

I think they're called "BOSTON PLUGS"

I've seen the same thing on paintball obstacles.. maybe able to find some through a paintball place too..

Yep, I've played with bolt-on 45degree toe block extensions and lap belts for the same reason. When it come right down to it I think I can accomplish the same thing by setting the factory toe blocks as tight as I can stand.

You can find "surf" and "sailing" brand drysuits on online auction sites for a lot less than "kayak" brand drysuits. I OC1 so I don't need a double tunnel wrap. My drysuit says O'Neill and cost me about $150 That said, I would give-up my fancy paddle for an aluminum raft paddle (+$150), water helmet...

I use the gloves, yes they get sort of soggy but there have drain holes in the finger tips and the mesh back lets go of almost all water instantly. It's really important to get a pair that fit "like a glove" luckily they use a numbered size system so you find a pair that fit perfect and just keep or...

Yup.. THOR impact gloves.

(The Thor Quadrant elbow gards are also some of the best and at $25 a pair can't be beat)
