Beereddy,

I have several pics of my friends and I on Southeastern US runs. The pics of the tandem team paddling the Dimension on Sec. IV of the Chattooga are in the Jan. 2004 album labeled Sec. IV. There are also pics of Daddys Creek in the Emory-Obed system, Big South Fork of the Cumberland, Little River Canyon in AL (that one has a great series of the Dimension running Bottleneck III+/IV-) and many others.

-"Are you looking for a good open boat?"

Hey Beereddy,

There is a post on here talking about tips in paddling an open boat in class V. I downloaded it and intend to reference it occasionlly.

Tips for Paddling Class V in an OC1


Since you are purchasing a Prelude, you will need the speed. This article talks about how to get speed without speed reducing corrective strokes. Timeing and front paddling are emphysized as well.

This is a good read for OC and C-1's
