I certainly agree with Open Gate, but it is surprising how many c-1 paddlers, including the thousands who run easy gates much better than I do, are body humpers. One of the local ACE coaches, an alternate in C-2 in previous Olympics, advised me to start yanking my body back ...

Yes Scott McGregor of Rapid Mag did a review of a Ace 5.1 C1 a few years back and I`d have to agree with Scott`s review...its a great C1. I`ve had my Ace as a C1 for about 3 years ...

the ace series had continuous rocker, they were not seen as a good kayak playboat, I wouldn't bother using one as C1 as there are many trusted and popular kayak conversions.

Rapid Magazine (a Canadian rag with lots of canoe content that inexplicably dropped my subscription) had a favorable review of the Ace as a C-1 a couple of years ago.
