Definitely the Palm Suits: Palm Element Ripoff Palm Element Original Palm Stikine Ripoff Palm Stikine Original The listing for the "Element" shows the relief zip, has booties, and claims to be breathable. Looking now at the listing for the "Stikine", I can see the flap that hides the relief zip. See...

The price is nice but it's lacking some features I like: - Breathable Fabric - Relief Zipper - Booties I had a cheap sailing drysuit (Gul) for a while. It was ok. It kept me warm and allowed me to paddle all winter. Then I got the Kokatat GMER and realized how crappy my sailing drysuit was. My saili...

8 years ago, I switched to C1 after 12 seasons of kayaking. I had recently started a "real job" and was looking for a way to challenge myself on familiar runs as an alternative to kayaking progressively more difficult rivers. I was quickly paddling class III and IV whitewater in the C1 but I definit...

The secret to an offside backstroke is the set-up. I start an offside back stroke by slicing the paddle blade into the water in a forward stroke motion. With the paddle shaft vertical and my bottom wrist cocked forewards, the blade's power face passes parallel and close to the offside boat edge. Onc...

Trade Maybe?

I have a Wavesport T2 outfitted as a c-1. it is in CT.

I will trade it for a sleeping bag or tent or something. Noone seems to want to pay cash for it so let's just trade old junk.

If you would paddle the thing, make an offer. I would just like to see it used by someone.
