New Reviews

What's new, exciting and interesting in the world of Paddling! Impex Kayaks: New ultralight carbon layup; the one we saw was in a new limited edition "sunset" color deck and a clear carbon hull -sweet! We hope to have a full review soon. Liquid Logic Kayaks: -whitewater; "Hoss" and "Lil' Joe" A pair of do everything kayaks that should be around for quite a while. -trekreation; "Tuxedo GT" Updates this great design to the level of outfitting it deserves. "Zirconia" -a tandem trek kayak, sporty and stable. Necky Kayaks: -Recreation/Touring; "Manitou" This new kayak looks like it should be a nice blend of rec kayak stability and touring efficiency. Great new seat! We hope to have a full review soon! Oak Orchard Paddles: A new wood touring kayak paddle. Seems to have allot of detail for the price range. Epoxy rock guard tip, laminated blade covered with a thin clear fiberglass layer for extra durability and less maintenance compared to other wood blades. Deluxe J Cradles: A new kayak carrier -claims to work as a stacker and a J style rack. Looks interesting! Expect a full review soon. Mad River Canoe: Adventure 16' -one of the first innovations in canoe building in quite a while. Caution, traditional purists need not apply! This canoe isn't going to stir up any romantic notions of Bill Mason paddling into the sunset but it is amazingly stable and a very nice canoe for the money. Backrests and cup holders are included!
