: Thanks. It took until I found the Sea Kayaker Magazine review to
: find how the KJ rudders deployed (bungi cord tug).
Something I don't like (bungi cord tug) as grit or sand can make it stiff so I always use a pull-down line for positive response.
: Interesting-I'd like to see video of it.
They did have a 3 step movie of it on their site at one time. You could try -
http://sites.google.com/site/kayakamf/kayaks
and go to the rudder page or
http://www.kask.org.nz
go to the DIY page and rudders.
Someone else said they didn't think the KajakSports version was very good. That's why SeaLect have designed their version. Some very poor aspects to the KajakSport version.
: I really liked the large foot pads on Kajaksport's Finnish site.
This is why I make full foot size pedals. Wood can still have its uses.
For a racing kayak which the thread was initially about, a small blade and light weight (carbon) would be good to have. For rugged sea touring we can use agricultural build, bomb-proof construction. If I needed to I could change blade lengths of put on stoppers to adjust the required depth of the blade. It would be possible to stow a spare blade and fit a different one from day to day while on a trip - if that really was necessary. A spare blade wouldn't take up any room in the kayak.
: I can walk twenty miles without any foot problems, but
: paddling always cuts off the circulation in my feet.
Which is why I recommend full-foot sized pedals.
: I think it might be the chairs cutting off circulation.
: Airliner thrombosis. If that's happening in our kayaks...
With the exercise from paddling it should be different from sitting in a plane watching the movie - I hope.
