I have heard rumours that the glass ones have a habit of delaminating, is this true...

Hi thanks for the reply, i have just managed to take the seat out, i think my seat is the new one where it bolts in from the sides onto a metal rail so you can adjust it easily.

Hi

Thanks for all the replies, they have come in handy. When you talk about shoving the bow under, do you mean as if you were doing an offside cartwheel (im just finding it hard to picture it any other way)?

Hi I have been kayaking for a few years now and have recently started paddling C1. I can roll and brace fine on my onside, but was wondering, if you begin to capsize towards your offside, is there anything you can do?
