Hi I have a savage skeeter and i like it. I'm 14 and have paddled it on flat water going up a river and did it with out a problem and have paddled it on white water. I did use to paddle a spanish fly, i liked the boat because i could sink the end down in a back channel but i couldnt move up the back...

Hi. When i paddle there are lots of jokes about cboaters. My boat gets called a bathtub which is kinda' funny. I also make jokes about kayakers and they make jokes about canoers. Its all fun. I've never had someone say something about canoers that has been ment. Although my brother is a butt-boater ...

Hi all. Sadly I cant go and practise until next saturday. So i got to wait untill then to go for it again. I have dangled upside down in my OC and it never bothers me. I've never done it for long but i have kind of done it. That was after falling in after about a minuet of paddling on flat. The main...

Hi all. Thanks for the information. I will try it when i get chance. But it was scary so i never go to anywhere that there is white water. As soon as it happened i was back down a couple days later in the spanish fly i was boroing and swam straight away but i got out and it never botherd me. I had t...

Hi all. I have a Dagger G-Force 6.1 which i got for a conversion for a C1. While it was still kayak i took it down the local white water course and had a slight accident. What happened was i forgot to pull the sprey deck when i went over, not beeing able to roll i couldnt get out. So i have never ha...

But there too expensive, then i have to pay for the outfitting. I dont know if the local canoe shop sells the prelude, they sell the zoom, but thats too expensive. But i would probably break the spark by dropping it when its cold. I need a boat thats gonna last till it falls appart.

I dont get it.

Hi I dont know how old the skeeter i paddle is. Its a county council boat and was used by a few kids that wonted to try it, so it has been bashed around. When i got it the airbags wernt secured in properly and were down, so i had to re-tye them in. I dont think the airbags could take alot of preasur...

Hi I am looking for i boat i can carry on learning white water in, use on flat water and when i get good use it on waves. At the moment the bulk head system is standard, no foam has been added on it as its not mine. Sadly the local shop here in england hasnt got one i can demo and i have never seen ...

Hi I'm looking for a new boat. At the moment i'm paddling a savage skeeter which i am beeing lent because it isnt been used. I am beein tought on white water with it and am doing well. But i need a boat thats newer and more tight on me. So i saw the pyranha prelude. I dont wont anything too expensiv...

Hi tiggy The airbags are let down when it goes into the shed so any water can drain from them and it makes it easier for it to fit in. But when it is on the water they are blown all the way up so the outfitting wont move forward. I dont wont to put straps in it because i dont like t be fastened into...

Hi i have tried that but i have found it real uncomfortable as i am on the short side and moving my footpegs forward means that i am too bow heavy. However i have grown since then so i will try it next time i am paddling. The boats knee blocks came like that and on the spanish fly i used to paddle i...

The only problem with putting the foot pegs most of the way farward is all the weight is at the front, something people have said to me lots of time and how bad it is if your gonna' go into flow. I dont weigh that much and i'm a bit small. I was thinking of puttin some more foam at the top of saddle...

If someone could give me a place to put more padding then that would be great.

Thanks
