| For many mixed teams, adult / youth paddlers,
and teams of different sizes, the difference between a good canoe and
the right canoe is the difference between winning and losing. For these
paddlers, it's essential that they can easily trim the canoe so it
responds quickly and effortlessly to their paddle strokes. They can't
afford to be fighting a canoe that handles poorly. That's why we build
the V1-A with a "whale-tail." This allows the stern paddler to be
farther back in the canoe, properly trimming and balancing the hull for
maximum performance. The stern paddler can easily control and steer the
hull without wasting precious energy. For paddlers that have a variety
of partners, it's possible to rig our mixer to change between a men's
and a mixed set-up. | |
