What are the best shoes to wear when going canoeing?

admin — Wed, 02 Dec 2009 10:52:59 +0000

I was thinking maybe some Columbia sandals? Do you know what the best kind to get and where?. i’m going canoeing this weekend and i need the right shoes.
Good old fashioned deck shoes ( like a pair of womens keds). Canvas slip ons with a real light textured sole that grips like you wouldn’t believe. They have been around like a thousand years and still are the best for grip, cut protection, and for NOT jamming your little or big toe. Trust me…..deck shoes are the way to go, and jamming your toes can make a good weekend bad….real fast. For women, if I could make a brand recommendation, skechers women’s shoes work real well.

What is the difference between a dry and semi dry kayaking cag?

admin — Tue, 13 Jul 2010 19:01:00 +0000

And which is better for begging white water with?

Hello Ella, the difference is that the semi dry cag has a neoprene neck seal and the dry cag has a latex neck seal which keeps the water out completely. The neoprene seal keeps most of the water out but is not entirely dry but some people find this is more comfortable to wear.

Both cags generally have latex seals at the cuffs. The latex seals can be carefully cut to get a really good fit.

I hope this helps.

Do sit on top kayak seats make a more comfortable ride and help paddling?

admin — Mon, 05 Jul 2010 03:48:50 +0000

I have recently bought a tandem sit on top kayak and the seats are not so comfortable, does anyone have experience of the seats you can buy? Are they good?

There are some good backrests out there, and they do help.
