I guess I should update my comments since that first post last year. I ended up selling the greenboat after a few more runs. It wasn't too tippy (for a narrow kayak conversion), but it did require a great deal of off-side and correction strokes when moving at full speed in class 1-3 water, which is ...

I know you're a glutton for punishment, I've seen your training regimen.

If my work schedule is good, I'll be there.

Mr. Debris, what kind of level are we talkin about lately? Do you expect a normal 100%, or slightly more, or is there chance it will be low like last year? Also, any predictions on whether it will run on a Tues, Wed, Thur in the weeks leading up to the race? (I could make it down for some practice r...

I've paddled the burn and the remix quite a bit (medium burn and the remix 69). Very similar boats, both make great conversions. remix was a little faster, burn turned a little easier. other than that, very little difference. if I were planning on running more vertical stuff, I'd get the burn, more ...

You might try West Systems epoxy. It's relatively easy to use, and gives you a bomber attachment that is pretty much permanent. Don't inhale.

I don't know much about tidal flows, and I'm sure there are some folks here with more big wave experience, but here's a few thoughts if you're just getting started: -Most big wave surfing is very safe (compared to creekboating or playing in pourover holes). - Make sure you have a 100% roll so you do...

Here's a link to a couple of c-1 headcam videos. I'm still working out the kinks of this camera, so it's very poor-quality footage even after a lot of editing. (Camera was tilted on the helmet at a bad angle). You can still get a sense of what Decker's creek looks like from the paddler's perspective...
