thanks so much! I will have to get back out on the water and let you know how it goes!
Hey, were are you located?
I am in Boulder for a few more weeks then i am off to BV for the summer, If you are around I wouldn't mind showing you/watching and helping. There are actually a few girls at CU that can throw some awesome loops/cartwheels/bow stalls in the pool that would all be willing to help ya.
I get so excited when girls are thrown down!
good luck,
eeek!

hate to say it, but maybe it's your boat. I had a ZG for a few years and did nothing but regress. I thought I was in the middle of the weight range as well, and also consider myself to be strong for a girl. then I got a lower volume boat and was throwing, stalling, and controling it way more than I ever did in the ZG. Don't get me wrong, the ZG is a great boat, but I am to small for the smaller version of it. Demo a different boat or two for a day and see what happens for you.... you've probably got more style & skill than you think!!!
hey dances!.
when you getting back to gunny? we have to hit lake fork and we always got the pool hahaha

CUkayak: I'm still at school in MI, but once graduation is over, I'll be back in Gunnison. I spend quite a bit of time over on the ark, though, so we should work something out! I'd love some help!
Randie: I'm actually going to demo some other boats at paddlefest because there are other things I don't like about the ZG.... any suggestions? (that's quite the loaded question, I realize.)
Josh: we had better hit OBJ when I get back, as long as you don't mind babysitting again... I'll be back in town the 18th I hope (still working on that one)
CUKayak,
Would love to catch up with you in BV, Salida. I will be out there (rolling in from SoCal, thru Durango) around June 1 and then to Salida area and then to my place in Frisco. I get down to Salida area a lot (and Golden), but I am right behind Dancer/ Ms Hooves in this move progression. (can't stall worth shit.) Even in a tea cup.
Drop me a line on how to reach you. Or maybe we should scehdule some Betty Seminars around Fibark or earlier. We could have some evening sessions for girls (and guys) who want to work on playboating.
Sound good????

PS Any Golden Betties or 'friends of Betties' out there? Can we sync up? My friend and I are promising each other to enter the novice category of Wednesday rodeos.
hey sarah,
try the agent or a jackson, that's my suggestion, and i might be running Obj tomorrow , (cross fingers hope it rains, looks like it might) i don't mind babysitting even though you kicked its ass your first time down. hey im trading my nomad for a smaller one, we're going to have the same boat and size hahaha but the color is red. we went to the M-wave today still a hole but it's almost there, we have to hit that, oh and the lake fork, maybe we can hit the piedra (never done that one), fibark, numbers high flow!!!!!!, looks like we are going to have a good season, oh you should come to the teva games, alright i'll stop, call me when you get into town!!!!! oh so many thing to do so little time, have a good one.
Josh

AWESOME!!!!
Kimy,
That would be so cool, I dont really know anyone in BV. I will get down there on the 24th.
I am not much of a play boater...meaning i can flat spin and sometimes do something random and cool, but i do spend a lot of time at pool sessions at school in the winter so i can say i am better on flat water, as sad as that sounds. I would love to hang out with you and Dancer around the ark valley. Check your PM's
good deal,
Christine
