Whitewater Forum : New toutle.	Author: imageAK Subject: New toutle. Posted: 10 Dec 2015 at 5:03pm Cant provide more detail till she gets back down to like 3-4k. but after a high point of 64,500 theres gonna be lots of new features in probably all the rapids. The whole river was rumbling beneath us at 45k and dropping yesterday & at least one huge house size boulder slid into the river after stair steps. And the huge boulder R.right in the top part of hollywood spun to the left after the last 30k flash a few weeks ago, so it may have moved further left with this one	Professor Paddle	Washington, Oregon and vicinity

Whitewater Forum : Eskimo salto?	Author: Jed Hawkes Subject: Eskimo salto? Posted: 11 Dec 2015 at 7:56am If your in the medium to small weight range they are a good boat. A bit of an outdated design, but if you want a boat to last they're a good choice. Blow moulding has some technological limitations that makes most all blow moulded boats have a pointed bow which diminishes the volume in the bow as well as surface area making it a bit tougher to keep the bow on the surface. The rails have that subtle chine that is reminiscent of the Nomad but is a very different boat. JP Paddled one for a very long time and he would be able to go specific on its finer points. If your looking for something modern with volume I'd go a different direction.	Professor Paddle	Washington, Oregon and vicinity

Whitewater Forum : Eskimo salto?	Author: jalmquist Subject: Eskimo salto? Posted: 11 Dec 2015 at 8:45am JDG also paddled one (or more) for years, and could chime in. He stuck with that model for a while, which says something. But as Jed notes, it's an older design. That's not necessarily a bad thing, but don't expect it to handle the same as boats with more recent designs.	Professor Paddle	Washington, Oregon and vicinity
Whitewater Forum : Eskimo salto?	Author: jP Subject: Eskimo salto? Posted: 11 Dec 2015 at 8:54am When I got mine in 2008 it made sense to choose the Salto for its assets over its shortcomings. I'd be happy to enumerate both the pros and cons of that boat, but by 2010 boat designs crossed a threshold in my opinion that didn't warrant stickin w/ the Salto and its design limitations. Jed essentially sums those up. The bottom line is the wright/size range. I think you are too tall for the Salto. It will litterally "cramp your style". Jed is right- its better for a runt like me or someone w/ a smaller build. Even still, the total volume is only 69 gallons or somethin, and by 2011 puffed up, intelligently distributed volume was in vogue for legit reasons. I got the Eskimo for its Nuke Proof strong plastic. But being lighter weight and a more experienced kayaker any contemporary boat will do because... -I don't grind every shtty mank rock I see. I go for wet boofs and save my plastic. If its a must-make move I'll grind the sht out of it though. Cost of doin business. -I don't sit on my boat or let others do so. "GET THE fu*k OFF MY BOAT!" -I don't drag my boat (well, in moments of hardship in the woods, sure- Im gettin to be an old man. Better it than me) -I pilot my kayak in a proactive way. Ain't no floater Driftwood Zombie. Paddle around scratchy little rocks. -Just paddle with more water in the creek in general. Those who adhere to these basic tenants will find they preserve their boats better with fewer scratches. Quick Quiz: How do you cut a sheet of plastic in two? Score and Snap. Get a nice deep gash or three in your boat and then go land flat on some rock...no coincidence most boats break under the seat. Eskimos are super strong in this regard though. Seriously if Eskimo started making boats again they couldnt pay me to paddle one (unless it was a new design but that aint gonna happen). Mamba. 9R. Jackson Zen... Those are the boats that got me salivating when Shiva ain't lookin. But Hawthorn's criticism of the Salto was correct back in '08 when he said that Eskimo was stuck in an outdated design paradigm. If itcwasnt true then it certainly is now. Boats have come a long way.	Professor Paddle	Washington, Oregon and vicinity
Whitewater Forum : Eskimo salto?	Author: jP Subject: Eskimo salto? Posted: 11 Dec 2015 at 9:05am Now for the secondary, less relevant post... Features I LOVED about the Salto: Lightweight yet Strong. No pillars or walls inside. Awesome multiday capabilities, and easily transports a 36" bow saw or a small chainsaw for beaver missions. I dig the molded in plastic grab loops rather than those little metal pins most boats have. I litterally been hanging from a cliff with one hand, boat dangling from the other with the bow in the current of some raging beast I was portaging. The plastic handles in the seat saved my ass on a few occassions when I was gettin thrashed in a hole (Mrs. Robinson on Robe and most notably, Bad Mamba Jamba on the S.fk SkOkomish	Professor Paddle	Washington, Oregon and vicinity
