At first, when I only saw their computer 3D, it looked like a kayak, but the photos of their prototype show something different.

Here's where to find the computer 3D.

Maybe you can see why I thought it was a kayak from the computer stuff. Appeared to have prominent knee space for a kayaker.

We are the mad people who have been long in kayak bussiness idea is to start something like a new kayak manufacturer in Europe. time will tell

The first c-1 project is called wheelboy, oh yeah and that boat can wheel. It also loops and blunts more than many others....

I have desingned it and worked on it 3 years... i have had people like Barry Kennon in it and well boy it was a ride....

the knee area has raised a bit in every protype,it is still smaller than in kayaks but it is looping volume around there. the volume distribution is pure c-1. it is sicko wheeler due right volume distribution i can hit 40 clean ends in 25 second or so.

Desing is especially good for everyone because it is stable and forgiving. though it is has huge hull speed (same as riot tekno) it still has enough rocker for bouncing air blunts

BTW: if NICOLAS SARAZIN from france is reading please email me at marko@rocsport.com asap....
