Having been a whitewater paddler (Slalom C1) for about 12 years in the 70s and 80s that looks very awkward compared to a whitewater C1. Each to his own I guess.

Don't know, but Robin Bell is an Aussie who was 2005 World Champ and won Bronze at the 2008 Olympics - doesn't get much recognition unfortunately as it is such a small sport in OZ.

Wow, that's seriously crazy! Rivers are so much more dangerous than surf!

Hey Goatman. Do they paddle the C1's on their ass or knees? Damn hard work.
