... is a long weekend here in Canada, I already have plans for it, so a definite no go for me :cry: . I could bring the following boats: Finkenmeister Delirious Prelude Atom martin

... Freestyle moves in there :cry: . I know what you are talking about concerning the problems with the stern, you should have seen me when I took my Delirious down the Ottawa for the first time :o ... let's just say it was very very amusing for my friends... 8) ...and if I am lucky the rivers will ...

... Right now, I fall over when I try to take a breath. But I'll work on that. Flatwater loop: no, I don't have the boat for that. I can pump my delirious up a little but not enough to actually get out of the water... Once I buy my spud boat... :-) On the river, Jan

... helps. When you do that the right way, you can easily handcartwheel your boat. Some boats need to be rocked to initiate the ends to dive... My Delirious cartwheels by itself, no paddle needed (sometimes, in drops, it seems even no paddler is needed...) To work on the bow stall, I find it very ...

Anyone have any old 'yak float bags that would fit in a Prijon Delirious (or any pillar-less design)? Need 2 (bow & stern)

... problem, I even get sucked out of my boat while getting soundly thrashed in a hole :wink: . I do also have a bulkhead setup in both my C1 boats (Delirious and Finkenmeister), but there the bum lift problem is virtually non existing. The biggest difference between the setup in the Prelude and ...

Kirill, Whoa now THAT'S one cool boat :lol: :lol: !! Did this ever get made? Is this a russian boat design based on the Delirious, or is it actually made by Prijon? Have you ever seen one? What is it made of? Composite? Can you give me a little more info (unfortunately I do not speak ...

... gives it tremendous secondary stability. The angle between the side and the bottom is probably somewhere around 110 degrees (rough estimate). The Delirious however has a significant amount of tumblehome in the center, while width at the bottom is 27 inches, width at the top is probably only 24 ...

Most fun: first day in my Delirious on the Nanaimo River. It is an easy run but the boat was so much fun it was unreal. Most Challenge: OC: a nameless river/creek in NWT flowing into the Baillie River. It was a class 3 run in an open tandem ...

... did not really help there :wink: . I could get upp pretty much any time with with even the lazyest and sloppiest roll in my C1 playboat, a Delirious, but had a hard time in my OC1, a Prelude, and also my new Finkenmeister. This was partly boat related, as the Delirious is narrower and has ...

I have been using a bungee yak skirt on my Prijon Delirious, and frankly it has been a disaster. The stupid thing comes off so easily, it will be relegated to pool duty only :evil:. It is partly because a) the bungee does not hold it on tight enough ...

... stability is so confidence inspiring. As far as playboating is concerned, I have a lot of of work ahead this winter during pool sessions in my Delirious C1... martin

... in the winter. The main is good in the summer. During the week I do some training in marathon canoes and outrigger, twice a week. I hope to get my Delirious out on the water during the week for flatwater, too. This summer, I had 65 consecutive paddling days :-) Since I had a back injury I have ...

... which is good for Riverrunning and stuff like that but pretty much sucks because of no edge. I just started C1 seriously and have a Blunt and a Delirious that wait to be paddled on Vancouver Island (winter is paddling season here ;-) ) Yesterday I had an "interesting" ride in a Mr Clean. Jan

I know in alot of the OC-1's it helps to paddle an onside arc. Most I've paddled will do this (although the Outrage doesn't seem to like to)...it seemed to work in my delirious the little bit I was out in it.
