Re: Robson Finkenmeister C1 For Sale

No interest so far? Am I too remote out here in Nevada?

Re: Soul Waterman's Fanatix

Making a plastic C1 is a rare gamble and if they do not get enough orders, production may be cut short. Keep that in mind. The Fanatix seems to be a winner, but the last 2 plastic C1's (the Robson Finkenmeister and Drakkar Wheelboy) were not financially successful. The C1 community is small and diff...

Re: Soul Waterman's Fanatix

Just ordered the Fanatix. It will be awhile before it arrives. Will give a review after some experience with it.

Re: Soul Waterman's Fanatix

Yep. Saw that website already. Is it too early for anyone to have had any river experience with the Fanatix?
Thanks.

It IS pricey at $1800 dollars! It looks very playful and is claimed to be a good general river runner. I am inte...

Re: Boat of the Week - Dagger Atom

Hello JohnD, The Atom is a good boat for Class 3&4 sections. It paddles a little like a low volume slalom boat. It will teach you something about your boating, because it demands more of you. After selling my first Atom :oops: , I picked another up recently. They may be hard to get, so don't wait to...

Re: OC2 instruction

Go with a C2. An OC2 ships a lot of water and becomes difficult to handle in more serious water. A C2 would probably be more maneuverable, is a hole-punching machine and is easier to roll. One place to check out is Nantahala Outdoor Center in western North Carolina for lessons. I got C2 lessons ther...

Re: From C-1 to H-1

Excellent illustration that your lower body movement is just as important as upper. :o
P.S. We are dry out here for the fourth year and won't have much of a boating season. Thank God for releases.
