Galasport Loco - boat is in great shape, no breaks or cracks. Mad Dog carbon hip blocks and seat. $350 Vajda Twister - Old length spec, but at some point in its life a few inches were broken off the stern. Cracks and patches in the stern area, but it is a solid boat with a lot ...

Vajda Twister C-2, old length spec but the stern was broken under a previous owner, boat is about 14 foot 3 inches. Center cockpits, couple patches, couple cracks but overall a very solid boat. Comes with 2 Sandiline skirts $500, ...

... hard-chined, asymetrical-rockered, C-1 and OC1 hull shapes...there would be lots of Max II DNA in them. The designers of the Frachella Viper, Twister, and Defiant will flat-out tell you they snagged cross sections from either the Cuda or the Bat. As far as the other hard-chined boats, the ...

Thank you, To everyone who took the time to reply. Its funny, I was actually thinking just the other day that someone outght to put another foot or so of boat into an Ocoee design...quite an interesting idea. ClassFiveBoats- I'm assuming you're the same folks who are making the EDGE13/15 series stil...

Hey Rob, Did you try contacting Jenny Goldberg from the League of the Northwest? She may remember who bought my Defiant at the Cedar race more than a few years ago. Another person that was there and talked to the guy was Marc Leonard. I can attempt to contact him to see if he has a clue who it was. ...

I have built and raced both designs, The designers of these boats weigh between 150 and 165 pounds. A paddler you weight , would sink these narrow designs to the point they won't handle properly. This is very true of the edge . Slalom has not traditionally been a big man sport. The biggest by far I'...

Never paddled a 15' Edge. A very uncommon boat at races I've been at. The boat I would suggest is the Howler. Kaz makes them, and Mad River made them for a few years in Royalex. A really fine boat for heavier paddlers. A close second would be the Prowler. A Prowler is +/- a Howler paddled backwards ...

Roy, Thanks for the input. I've been considering racing in the 15 foot class as opposed to the 13 foot class, so do you have an opinion on the Edge 15? I've always been handicapped by my size when it comes to boating, they just don't make a lot of boats for guys who look more like linebackers than c...

I raced a Twister for a while at something in the 210 to 230# range. I was running it with a 7.75" seat height. I concluded it was too skinny for me at my weight (spin and stability issues). Getting the seat down well below my ...

... X, and since I already own one (even if it is on perma-loan) I'm just not sure I want to buy another. Plus its 8 hours away form me. So, Edge Vs. Twister I realize that both these designs are quite old, and any self-respecting OC-1er should have managed to paddle both during their time as a boater. ...

... the wetted surface was tweaked, other times, not so much. As Adam mentions, the Hahn was the base for the HD1, and, I believe, the Flashback. Twister was from a BatMax Fat Boy (aka Defiant) from a CudaMax Sweet had a bolt-on mold extention which made a Hahn hull mold into a OC-1 I have made ...

... As well as the following models: Viper 11 Probe 11 Edge 13 Edge 15 Twister 13 New coming out in May : Hombre 11'3" The website only has a list of canoes right now. Ill add pics and descriptions as soon and I can. Cheers ...

I'll start saving! looks like a really fun boat.

Finally , Contacted the original designers and got the go ahead to build Twisters . This is the slalom canoe Mad River used to build.
Cheers!

Thanks, will do.
