Excellent. I will take all of these into consideration and get on it with making this video.

Cheajack, I think you are talking about Al Faussett -- the man who ran Sunset Falls in Washington State. Here is a video I just saw posted today on the subject of running big waterfalls.

Yes!!

Or are there any good additions, specifically for canoeists?

(I have been quoting this video non-stop for about six months.)

The open boat waterfall descent record was actually set longer ago than you may think. This is not only pre-Steve Frazier, but actually pre-George Washington too. This clip is from a vintage paddling film. I used to watch it to get psyched up before running the gnarr myself. Skip to 1:25. From below...

I like the Pure a lot. I have the XL, but I think next time I'd go for the smaller one. It doesn't boof quite as easily as the Burn, but then again, I've had it for more than two months and haven't broken it yet, right?

Boating is fun,

I had a lot of fun on my roadtrip south three weeks ago, getting to boat with lots of good friends and even some cboaters. Here's a headcam video I made from the trip, on a wonderful late February run of the Upper Blackwater, with Steve and Radley. What a great C-1 river the Blackwater is!! http://w...

I am just about to join the ranks of GoPro owners. My question is: what editing software do folks use to edit the footage?

Thanks,

I usually just use a penny loafer when I'm running waterfalls over 160' tall.

I think the doctor might have some secret medicine!!

The plastic really is great. I've been paddling a Prijon Release playboat for years and it's bomber.

I never paddled a Delirious, but that was supposedly an awesome C-1 conversion.

I'd say go for it!

"What are the common pitfalls of the Learning Curve?" Speaking from my own perspective in getting into C-1, the biggest pitfalls would have to be: - Trying to use a piece of wood or a rock instead of just getting the hammer out of the toolbox - Using the green can contact cement instead of the red c...

Thanks for all of your input, Larry. I demoed one today -- kneeling in it and using a canoe paddle -- and was won over. Feels like a great boat, and I BOUGHT IT!!

Going Prijon!!


Alden

Can anyone confirm about the plastic quality? Has anyone else paddled one?

Does Prijon sell hulls (minus outfitting)?

Larry and others --

I was wondering if I could get a quick update? How do you like the Pure XL after some more time paddling?

Anyone know where I could get a deal on one?

I can't believe how weak Pyranha plastic can be. I think it's time to go Prijon.
