yippie...another shitty creek boat...can't wait to see a bunch of them in paddle shops a few years from now for half price-nobody wanted one 2 years ago, nobody wanted one last year, nobody wanted one this year...just a guess, but i bet nobody will want one of them next year either.

I wish that boat was shaped like a big turd, at least some times my turds resurface after hucking their meat.

That means you have poor digestion. I'm sorry for you. Let the spandex dream go.

terds like the old hero series don't deserve to get wet in the poopy flood water.
*when i actually tried the hero on my local river, it was poopy because there are a lot of pig farms on the drainage.

i bought my first jackson super hero during the summer of 06' but i didn't get into it until june 2, 07'. i enrolled in a class with current adventures in coloma, ca and i spent the entire day upside down... i shit you not, the bottom of my boat saw more daylight then i did... i blamed it on the dimentia![]("http://www.professorpaddle.com/forum/smileys/smiley5.gif") ... needless to say, i learned a pretty mean bow rescue. i gave the boat to my son![]("http://www.professorpaddle.com/forum/smileys/smiley32.gif") and he loves it. the boat literally, plows through the waves, it's just not the right boat for me. i, currently paddle a mamba 8.5 and i will be buying a project 62 this month... maybe today... anyhooooo.... the super hero works for my son.
on an unrelated note... i'm trying to find some class II/II+ water to work on my mad skills of observing the rocks on the bottom... any help is appreciated.

If you're into geology, theres some fun rocks to classify under the powerhouse section. Hope this helps.

sweet, just what I have always wanted...a creekboat that can loop, at least that way you can have some fun when you are getting trashed. All you prospective buyers out there, pay attention to how little of that video was actual creeking...at least they did not show it doing some stern squirts.
whatever

Harmes, Ryan? Why is Hugo kissing your ass now?
Is the rumor that he is a weak suck boater that swims on every rapid true? Did you guys discover this while rescuing him and all his gear from that Gnarly classII+?
Inquiring minds want to know.

If Homo could actually creek you'd see less angst. I forget, what do Mr Clean's posts sound like?

It is true though... there was almost as much playing in that video as creeking....
Marketing hype is the main game!
