Re: Help! Probe 11 question - how will it paddle for me?

Forgot to mention, it is a super wet boat. Installing the 58 inch bags and a pump will help.

Re: Help! Probe 11 question - how will it paddle for me?

I'm 230, 6'2", paddled the probe 11 for 2 years and it did everything I needed it to do, rolled nicely for me. An easy boat to advance your skills. 500 is a fair deal. If you don't take it for 500 someone else will.

Re: Is the Phiend officially dead?

No, they have way to much time and money (blood, sweat, and tears) to walk away from. It is still very much alive from what I've been told.

Re: Dry land rolling practice

I've not perfected my roll by any stretch but last winter I was bored and went out in the back yard with my boat and paddle, found a big pile of leaves and practiced my roll. It may have been hilarious to watch but it actually did help me break down each step and create muscle memory. After this ses...

Re: curious about c1

Also, I use a 58" paddle now, I'm guessing that would need to change? Shorter maybe?

Re: curious about c1

I should've mentioned that I've been in an oc1 for about 3 years now. I'm about 6' 2" and 225lbs, what would be a good c1 (budget friendly) to start on?

Just wanting some input on c1 paddling. Pros/cons, etc. Why does one favor c1 over oc1 etc. Interested in discovering the possibilities of paddling a new type of boat.

Re: diy paddle blade

The op already has a break down paddle that just needs a little work. That is why the op posted asking for information on how to, not what I should have done first. The op is very gifted as a craftsmen and only needed a little direction. The op does not need or want to throw money at simple solution...

Re: diy paddle blade

I say decent meaning that it breaks down and I got for 20 bucks. It's just and aluminum shaft, plastic trip and blade. I just wanted to have it for a back up. Tried it out and when I pushed off with it it just snapped. All I'm trying to accomplish is to have a decent back up in case I need it. If so...
