Wow - these guys really styled it today on the Tot in the "Dynamic Duo" boat. First they got their roll down, but to our disappointment they never had to try it in a combat situation. They made running the falls look easy! I can't wait to see Andy's pics and video!

Yeah, I gotta admit I felt ripped off. I want my money back. There was no carnage to be seen at all. Seriously though, they tore it up. Sweet boof on Eye Opener fellas!!

I don't know about "stylin" it, but I do know that it was some of the most fun I've had on the Tot in a long time...now maybe thats because it hasn't rained in a while, but I'm pretty sure it was the great company on the trip and the boat. Very stable, easy to roll, forgiving, fast (REALLY FAST), oh and did I mention it was an absolute blast. Should have some video up for you soon, but in the interim, here's a photo to wet your appetite. (and no its not the "soul boating" picture) Andy, Michelle, Ryan, and Marshall...thanks for coming out and hangin with us, just in case something happened. Another great day with Arkansas boaters!

Ok my version of what really happened.
1. I had to learn an off side roll or swim. On the fly as I was upside down, and realized I had made a mistake of trusting you know who
2. At zig zag the boat and I surfed fairly decent, despite the dead weight in the back trying to drag us down.
3. The Esses were no problem the line just seemed to fall into place
4. At double ledge we had that thing spinnin like nobody's business, suprisingly it was a fairly easy task with a little communciation.
5. The Falls were so much fun, we even carried that heavy sucker up to do it again. We managed to boof all 13' of the boat in the air, at eye opener. Though we missed it on the second run and subbed the boat in the hole. But, with the tremdendous hull speed it came right out.
Seriously it is way more intuitive than one would think, and the learning curve is very fast. The only true flaw I found (of course It was 2 fairly experienced boaters, that know the tot very well) was carrying/walking with the boat. This is way harder than paddling it. It rolls super easy with a little effort from both. I say demo the thing with someone, it will be a fun experience this I promise.
