... skirt that currently fits no other boat. Posted on Jun 10, 2002, 6:09 PM super EZ by Mike W. I'm 185 & recently converted a Big EZ. I'm having a blast in it. I posted a review a few pages back. The things that I do not like are the extemely slow hull speed (I had to figure out a different way ...

... on Jun 3, 2002, 12:13 PM Muhahahaha.... by Sir Adam So, the Glass Revolution (or is that revelation?) has begun:). If you REALLY want to have a blast, cut it down a bit:) (or, just purchase an Acrobat...both PS Composites and Angst have molds). C-ya IN Glass:) Sir Adam P.S. John Sweet has a ...

... waves than a slalom boat. So surfing, yes, definitely possible, definitely fun. Stern squirts (pivot turns) are also very possible, and a real blast in a long slalom boat. Cartwheels on the other hand would be very difficult due to the length of the boat and the volume. Unintended cartwheels ...

... Viper:) by Sir Adam Greetings...! I'm glad you like the site! I suspect your weight would be just fine for the Viper (full cut) and you'd have a blast stern squirting it (intentionally). I believe mine is 3/4 cut, and I have to work a little to get it to stern squirt-I consider it more of a cruiser ...

... was the only other single blader out there and he was in an open boat, so I already wrote him off). Big Nasty was coming up and I really wanted to blast through the left line, trying to keep all of my speed, so I kept stroking hard with my head pointing down. Whack! A reaction wave knocked me over, ...

... front surfing consistantly. I want to be able to carve back and forth but this I cannot yet do! When I am trying to surf I lean back but I end up blasting way down the wave or up the trough of the hole. If I try to maintain an aggressive position I end up doing an ender and I have to either wash ...

... Gorge in a slalom boat. Wheeeeee! I've taken the Acrobat down before, and that was fun, but WOW! the speed of the fanatic was great. I had a blast just playing with the eddys and such, and yes, even paddled up to a swimmer (you'd think rafters could learn to stay IN their boats:) ). On of ...

... allowed me to try his converted Wavesport Z in the wave at the bottom of the Funnel. Quite a change from the Cascade I was paddling, but it was a blast... Just wanted to pass on my thanks, again, to Charles for letting me give it a shot. Now I'm in the hunt for a new boat! Posted on Apr 15, 2002, ...

... rapids start off as rock gardens w/ rocks the size of washing machines and funnel to a wave train and a pool. These rock garden style rapids are a blast in a slalom boat as each rapid is a makeshift slalom course. The river also has a couple of nice play holes. The first is at the put in. Two rocks ...

... it late last summer. I purchased it for creeking as I wanted something with more volume than my Strobe and I found that the Big Gun,'tho a blast(!), is huge on me. I'm 5'4 and 128. If you don't mind working, it's a great boat and I have been very pleased and often surprised by its performance. ...

... want to go? DM Posted on Jan 25, 2002, 5:42 AM DaveM-I'll meet ya at Great Falls.... by Kalin NOT! How about NB of the Potomac again? I had a blast on that one and would love another shot at it! Lots for everyone to do...(and I PROMISE I won't be the last one on the water this time!!) L.Yough ...

... have fun! Mike Posted on Jan 6, 2002, 2:42 PM Snow Drops by Mark Johnson Some people say that Cascades are not great in the H20 but they are a blast on big snow covered drops! That was a wonderful day Mike. Happy winter, Mark Posted on Jan 7, 2002, 7:52 PM

... 170 lbs. 11ft.) Cheers, Mike. Posted on Dec 13, 2001, 4:28 PM You'll like it by Neal F. I've paddled a Glide c-1 on several occasions and had a blast every time. It should handle most whitewater (up through class 5, depending on your skills and experience) including big water and do all the ...

... have to do, but I am in NS and have to make a trip next spring. There are not really any courses but you can pay for 1 on 1 instruction and have a blast learning some skills, tips and tricks. Let me know what you come up with, fellow Canadian C-1 paddlers may be interested. Good Luck. Matt PS- ...
