Re: skirt grab loop handle
Sew a strap right across from side to side about 1/3 back from the front of the skirt. Kayakers call it a knee release strap, obviously that will never happen strapped into a C1, but it is much easier to find (slide your hand from the front towards you along the skirt and it will catch it) and virt...

skirt grab loop handle
Yesterday I had the uncomfortable experience of not being able to find my skirt grab loop. I couldn't feel the loop through my thick winter gloves. (Or maybe I tucked it in the boat, who knows). I've seen some people attach a small wiffle ball to the grab loop. I've heard some people use a carabiner...

Whenever the topic of offside rolling comes up, I watch this video and cry into my beer(s).

Re: C1 Outfitting
I wonder how you dealt with the rocker in the hull, and I wonfer how much it flexes I've always wondered about that with the classic fence rail conversion also. The only conversion I've done so far has been on a LL boat with the factory rail. The factory rail conforms to the rocker. But wouldn't a ...

Thanks, Einar. I still paddle the L'edge. The C1 is a Remix 79.

Re: Canyon Creek, WA
That's funny, Pat. I didn't realize there were so many Canyon Creeks. This is the one that runs into the Lewis River, near Amboy, WA. (http://www.americanwhitewater.org/conte ... il/id/3066)

Helmet cam footage.This is a classic local run. I've done it a few times at lower water, but this was a kind or rough day for me.

Re: Show me your hip pads!
I'm tossing around the idea of putting some hip pads into my Option to help me confidently take my roll from the pool to real life scenarios. Funny. I haven't felt the need for hip pads in my L'edge. I roll that thing so much, it's kind of embarrassing. Are you sure that hip pads are the missing pi...

Re: Everyone's favorite topic...
I've never used that stuff, but Weldwood is a lot cheaper. That's what holds all the foam in my L'edge (seat, sidewalls, knee pads, and ankle blocks). For my C1, I used 3M Spray Adhesive out of laziness. It's faster but doesn't feel as strongly bonded. You're right. This is my favorite topic. Wouldn...

Re: Cracked Taureau
Good luck.
It does feel pretty weird at first to cut off one part of a boat to fix another part. I've had to hack off welding rods from the cockpit of my Remix several times. You get used to it.

Re: Cracked Taureau
One more thought. Did you buy your Tareau new? If so, talk with your dealer. They may have a better idea of who to contact at Esquif. One of the mistakes I apparently made when my L'Edge broke was calling Esquif directly instead of talking to the store where I bought the boat.

Re: Cracked Taureau
That sucks.
Maybe try using the phone instead of email. The Esquif website has their numbers listed for offices and reps.
My experience with Esquif customer service was positive. Email is fickle. Maybe they got caught in a filter.
