awkward roll by TELEWHACKER I completed my Ultrafuge conversion a little while ago. (Thanks to all the helpful postings and emails I received from this group.) So I eagerly jumped into the pool with it. But I can't roll! When I set up to roll as I had in my Quake and Ovation (body out beside the boa...

Salto as a C1 by scoot I am looking for a boat to run steep technical 'rivers' and creeks. Does anyone have experience with the eskimo salto, it looks like a solid boat? Any other suggestions & brief performance reviews for class 4+ appreciated. I was also thinking of a necky blunt or dagger outlaw ...

X vs. Forplay as C-1 by steve whitaker Does the X make a good C-1? I can get one real cheap, but would pay more if I were convinced that the Forplay were much better as a C-1. Posted on Dec 15, 2001, 4:57 PM X as a C1 by PAC I have an X and its a good all around boat. I'm not the worlds greatest C1e...

Ok, heresy I know, but rolling a C1 with a kayak paddle? by BigFoot Taking the tip from a previous post, I have been practicing bowstalls in the pool using a kayak paddle -- it's pretty helpful actually (especially as I have only been c1 since July). But it would be helpful to be able to roll, as yo...

First timer by Patrick Thinking about converting a boat to c-1. I was wondering if an amp would be too much for a beginner to handle? If so what is a good boat to learn in? Asking about the amp because I have one in my possession. If not what all would be needed to convert. Any input is appreciated....

session C1 review by James Tried a liquid logic session as C1 over the past few days. I'm 175 lbs, 6 foot. Tried on a number of waves and in a small hole. Fun boat! though its performance likely changes greatly if you weigh dramatically more or less than me. Carves very well on a wave, super loose, ...

Warm socks/boots for C-1? by RT Hey, everyone! One of Santa's elves is gonna get me a pair of foot warmers for Christmas. What's the hip-hop-happening material for a C-1? In a perfect world, I would be able to walk on it a little, but if it's a boot/shoe, it has to have almost no wrap-around at the ...
