Pigeon won't start scheduled releases until Memorial Day I believe.

It all depends on your skill level. If class 3-4 is your game, you should shoot for what you listed. Also, be sure to keep French Broad section 9 on your radar. It may hold water better than some of the other's you mentioned. The Big Pigeon gorge will have scheduled releases that time of year. You m...

I've never paddled one, but it looks to me like a chopped viper 11. I'd love to take one for a spin.

I just ordered one from Mountain Surf. They will have to make it for me. $200.00!!!!! OUCH

I ordered a skirt from mountainsurf through diamond brand. $200!

Does anyone know if a size large Immersion Research spray skirt will fit a Cascade?

Thanks!

Thanks,

Phil

Thanks!

Thanks for the help everyone. Can't wait to try this C-1 thing out!

Okay....I understand now how to use the center rail in the kayak to mount the forward end of the thigh straps. How do I mount the rear ends of the thigh straps? Do I have to drill through the kayak?

I'm outfitting a sub 7 as a C1, and need some help with adhesive's. Will DAP Weldwood (Red Can) work for applying the foam saddle and knee pads to the plastic? I will be using thigh straps and need to know what I should use to glue the D Rings to the plastic. In my Open Boat's, I allways use vynabon...
