I'm just about to sell my Cascade C-1 and switch to a slalom C-1 -- which should be a real education in edge control for me. Hopefully I won't need to roll *too* much, because it's been a while since I've practiced the C-1 roll. And not to brag too much, but my C-2 mixed partner and I are having a great racing season: we've even beaten all the men's teams each of the last two weekends. The Whup-a-Tar we're paddling is lightning-quick, even if we aren't, and each time we race we're doing less and less talking and more and more hard paddling -- our second run at every race has been faster than our first 4 out of 4 times. We haven't tried OC-2 yet, but we're thinking about it. Since both of us are decked boaters, we'll probably be quite the comedy act until we get used to the height of the boat. ;-) ---Rsk Rich Kulawiec rsk_at_gsp.org *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.gasp-seakayak.net/paddlewise/ ***************************************************************************Received on Tue Sep 29 1998 - 04:21:42 PDT
