Re: SPRAY SKIRTS

Wondering if you found a solution to the Atom skirt? I need one as well. I’ve been using an old medium deck kayak skirt. But, it has a large wrinkle in the front when on the Atom’s cockpit… and leaks… a lot. Round skirt on a square hole. Would not recommend going with a standard kayak skirt for a lo...

Re: Olympics

Yeah. Wow.

Gate 24.

I might be switching to full time C1 and learning to stern squirt now.

Re: Recommendation for river runner C1

I just picked up a liquidlogic Mullet for that. 9' long x 26.25" wide. Some online review referred to it as a "Dad boat"... Sounds Perfect! right? I think it was discontinued in favor of it's close relative the Braaap 69, which is not as wide and less volume up front. Don't have mine outfitted yet, ...

C1 Wavesport EZG 50

For Sale. C1 converted Wavesport EZG 50. I got this hull for cheap due to a cracked kayak outfitting mount for the thigh hook and gave a try at a C1. Not for me, boats too small, I'm too tall, etc... Full length saddle was added and glued in place with knee and foot foam for comfort. There are a cou...

Re: Ankle Blocks - Knee Pain - Fix?

I use a different approach that I call "shin blocks". It distributes the weight across a much larger area, provides much better circulation, and takes most of the weight off of the knees. I personally can't do ankle blocks. They cut off circulation to my feet and I'm out of the boat every 10 minutes...

Re: Dagger Aftershock Re-Outfit

Those air bags look pretty new. If you bought those, perhaps you wouldn't mind posting the size and what type of bags, where you got them. I have a CU-Fly with original air bags, I might have to buy new ones soon. Those bags are from Mohawk. They measure 48" from end grommet to corner grommet, defl...

Re: Dagger Aftershock Re-Outfit

More updates... Had to extend the straps and their pipes. Here's my trick to threading the webbing through the pipes... piece of wire, bend the end into a hook. After adding the extra layers, the 2" hole for access to the strap anchor was too small to reach the bottom. I had to work with pliers. htt...

Re: Dagger Aftershock Re-Outfit

Quick update... I got the foam glued in and have started to carve out the leg areas. Here's a couple of pics, more when finished. I always save the corners I trim off of larger pieces for things like this. http://i1107.photobucket.com/albums/h395/James_McPherson/Dagger%20Aftershock/IMG_1615_800x598....

Re: Dagger Aftershock Re-Outfit

Great post! Lots of detail & clear photos. Question: how is the transfer tube secured? Because it doubles as the anchor for your thigh straps, I'm wondering how you have secured it to the foam? Small hole, big pipe. Make a drill from the same size pipe that will be installed. I use an angle grinder...
