Greg I've never tried the Freefall, but im sure its a great boat (its a dagger), If you want the best boat for big drops, I would really, really recommend you the nomad, I've tried almost all creek boats, and for sure I'll stay with the nomad, pluss…

I have a very old Freefall and I just don't think she can stand the big drops anymore. I like this boat and we use it a lot to teach folks to roll as she comes up nice and easy and fo beginners is very stable.

there is a very easy way to fix that nomad, you need something to scratch the crack to give some space for the new plastic, cut a little piece of your boat, it has to be thinner than a pencil, and at last, with a heat gun, melt the piece of plastic…

Going off the lip

Running waterfalls is one of my favorite things in kayaking, even thought it only lasts for few seconds, it is one of the greatest feelings ever. That doesn’t mean you should go and run every single drop you find, running a waterfall takes big responsibility and compromise with yourself and with all the people you are paddling with.
If you’ve decided to start running big drops, I mean from 50 feet up, here are some moves that might help you to get that perfect line:

Mexico’s Unknown Waters.

Mexico is one of the best places to be a creek boater, it has so many rivers, with so much potential, and most of them unexplored. The other good thing about this is that kayaking is a new sport here, so that leaves a lot of FD for us.
