Gudday Savagekevin,

I'm still here at thte moment, but I may be doing a lot of travelling for work over summer, so that part of the year is not yet clear. I can hook you up with folks though, whether I'm here or not.

Where are you going to be based in Switzerland?
Cheers,
Matt

You gonna bring that thing over here for me to play with, right?

HIya Jim, I have an Esquif Zoom and paddle a lot of rocky creeks and rivers. I also noticed lots of wear early on when I ahd it and assumed I'd wear it out really quickly. I've had it 3seasons or so now and it's still going strong. I think it's more visible scratches than real damage. I would recomm...

I think there are places for pumps, but the real reason is that they make it easier...easier to surf more, easier to run without dumping.... Having said that I voted good idea. I debated a long time before putting a pump in my Zoom and now I don't think it's fast enough. For me the true elegance is ...

Gudday, I'm located near Bern and happy to help folks out in starting in C1 or OC1. I have extra equipment to loan if needed and there's some good local rivers to start out on. Just drop me a line through the forum and we can get together. Cheers, Matt Hoi 'zame, Ich wohne in der nähe von Bern und w...

Please send me an email to let me know what you think and which option you'd prefer, then I'll figure out what works best, let you all know and make the arrangements. Optio...

Hiya Guys, Sorry that I haven't been on the board much - I'm working way too much this year. I've started to draft an announcement about the 2008 Armada. I just haven't sent it out or posted it as I want to translate it into French and German and ahven't had time yet. The English is below. I'll set ...

...32 I think....not as much time on the water this year, so the neurons aren't firing properly. I started paddling on and off in kayaks as a teenager, but didn't really get into it until I was 23 and at gradschool in the US. I paddled a kayak for a couple of years, then started to look at open boat...

I have a friend in Oneonta who might be able to help, if that's not too far away. Otherwise, I used to paddle with a guy in Binghamton who paddled OC1 and a little C1 - he's been a visitor to this board occassionally - Stevebusch: http://cboats.net/cforum/profile.php?mode=viewprofile&u=193 Also do a...

Hey, would later in the year still have water? September is starting to look pretty busy since I'm in NZ all August

Cheers,
Matt

Yeah, those are also the shots on th video....I want to see some hull details though... I've paddled the air....I nearly bought one (it was only 300bucks!). I took it down some class III stuff. Lots of fun. Absolutely zero primary stability and not much more secondary....kinda like a log :) I'm 150l...

...might work. I'll check with Jo and see..and Scotland is a good idea. I just found that a very good friend who I lost touch with is currently in Aberdeen... How hard are these puppies....be goiod to catch something harder and something easier for Jo. As to the next Swiss Armada....same weekend nex...
