I lost a Mitchell Paddle on Tellico. It has pink duct tape on the blade and rubber tape the shaft. If anyone has found it, please call me at (931) 260-0839. I will be at ALF this weekend. Hopefully it will turn up.

I have been paddling an option since ALF but and love it. Recently, I was able paddle my old zoom on the pigeon. During that time, I noticed something, I have gotten a bit lazy in my new boat.

Both are great boats. I have been paddling the option since ALF and have also been able to paddle the ledge on some occasions.

Since I have nothing to compare it to in that regard, all I can say is that I have rolled the option with a six inch saddle. I do not reg...

The downside is that it changes the angle that your knees fit into the bulkhead and is harder to escape from when yo...

I traded my beloved zoom with my dad to try his option on the Green Briar and didn't give it back. I also paddled the lower Tellico and Lily to Nemo on Clear Creek in it. Great boat! More stable than the zoom (take that for what its worth), yet just as playful. It's very hard to swim in it and paddl...

That slide show has the gayest music I think I have ever heard. regardless, that is still a badass run.

Yes, it is me. I finally created a CBoats account for myself.

I can go this weekend! But I am going to need a ride up to the river.
