Kayak Demo
 
What Demo?
I was there, where were you? :dontknow:

old_rookie 05-22-2010 01:19 PM

They were there. Must admit they are not very obvious - just south of the visitor center at the end of Clairemont DRive.

roadx 05-22-2010 03:18 PM

thanks Rik!! for a newcomer it was great. gives me an idea of what i like in kayaks and what i dont. i stopped by oex at santa claira after we left you and tried a few more (butt was already wet, what the hell, right??) another good experience, good people.
i have to say the ocean kayaks are great. and the torques... well it just makes me lazy!! very cool. thanks again i enjoyed!!!

so far i like the ocean kayaks the most, stable and fast. got spoiled with the 13 footer

roadx aka steve

:you_rock:

old_rookie 05-22-2010 04:04 PM

Yup - thanks Rik and Mark. That was fun trying out the different units. What a cool way to get people interested and hooked. Can't wait to get one and do a little :reel: with it. Pull in a :wsb:to take home to the family and finally get some :luxhello: and :notworthy:.

After that short time on the water I had so much energy - it was great.

Thanks Mark for the lesson on getting on one - made it very easy.

Kayak Demo
 
Couldn't prove it by me, I went through every lot north and south. The only thing close was a Trident 15 standing upward on the back of a van, which I dismissed because there was no OEX sign or anyone around. I Finally got back on 5 at Sea World Drive. I hope the others I told about the Demo weren't equally disappointed.

old_rookie 05-22-2010 05:55 PM

If you had parked where the upright Trident was standing, then walk southwest from that kayak, you would have seen them. There was a flag flying with the OK logo on it not far from them. Sorry you missed it.

FishFeeder 05-22-2010 06:13 PM

thanks guys
 
those of us who did find you greatly appreciated the chance to try out a boat or two, thanks for your effort. it was actually pretty useful to get out with a bit of wind to see how the kayak handles as much wind as i'm likely to go out in. thanks again.

tony 05-22-2010 07:29 PM

Old Rookie, Judging by your new avatar I'm guessing there's a Trident with your name on it somewhere.........:cheers1:

Billy V 05-22-2010 07:42 PM

Thanks for the demo Rick.

It was a good day to test a kayak with wind and some small chop.
The trident 15 paddles nice.

BTW that was the most paddling I have done in my life :)
I wasn't sure how to work that arm peddle black stick you handed me after boarding the kayak.
