Introduction

I have been kayaking for years and finally bought one of my own. Eager to get on out the water as much as possible.

What types of water do you like to paddle? (flatwater, rivers, open water, whitewater, etc)

Open to pretty much anything, although serious white water is not on my agenda at the moment. Rivers are my favorite, so I end up somewhere different from where I started.

What skill level are you? (beginner, intermediate, advanced)

Intermediate

Do you own your own boat(s), and if so what types?

I just bought a Dagger Axis 12.0 with a drop-down skeg. With the skeg up it is highly-responsive and quick to turn. With the skeg down, it tracks nicely and easily for point-to-point paddling.

When are you normally free to paddle?

  • Hi Ted, and welcome to the dining group! I think I met you at Heidi D's party a few years ago--we were talking about hiking. Was that you?

  • Ted, I am heading up to next Saturdays paddle from Philadelphia, would it make sense for us to car pool? I could meet you someplace, I live in South Philly about 5 minutes from I-95.

  • My man Ted. Yeah, you only surfed with me once, but you did a great job! And talk about sharing the stoke...you were about as psyched as anyone could have been afterwards. You'll be a great addition here. Puerto Viejo and some reef breaks next year??
