Fun
2010 Fun Series is
Here- the best just got better!
David Knight and I have anxiously awaited the opportunity to add what
we have learned about boat design in the past three years to the new
Fun series. Now, we have finally been able to apply our new knowledge
and improve what has become the staple boat for people wanting the best
of both river running and playing. This is our third edition of the Fun
Series and I am proud to say that we achieved our design goals once
again. Simply put, we wanted to improve both the river running and the
playboating characteristics of this model. Here is what you can expect.
River Running:
The 2010 Fun is lighter weight, making it easier to carry and maneuver
for everyone, and those people who aren’t as strong will
really appreciate the lighter weight package.
The comfort of the 2010 Fun series is awesome and also an improvement
over the 2007 model. There is more footroom, a better knee position,
and the cockpit rim is lower around the hips and back allowing for more
comfortable rolling too.
The bow and stern stay out of the water better for downriver paddling
and surfing waves. This makes for easier peel outs, ferries, and
carrying speed through the harder moves. Awesome!
The edges have been rounded off substantially on the parting line
eliminating a lot of the ‘torque” that can come
from catching an edge, making it easier to stay upright.
The forward speed is also improved for longer lake paddles and
flatwater over the 2007 Fun.
Rolling- This is a terrific boat to learn your roll in, take it to the
next level, or simply assure you the easiest rolling available.
You’ll love how easily this boat rolls!
Playboating:
Faster wave surfing, looser hull, and very user friendly. We took the
same design ideas that made the 2010 All-Star a surfing machine and
applied them here.
Easier for vertical moves- the improved wing shape, better parting line
position are both big parts of why this boat is so improved in getting
vertical. Squirting or cartwheeling are both much easier and smoother.
No more “splash splash” when trying to cartwheel. A
nice smooth entry and exit on both the bow and stern make it easier to
learn your first vertical end, or link a dozen of them!
The wedge shaped bow and stern provide a ton of POP for launching huge
loops! This boat is crazy good for getting air!
The bow and stern are shorter and higher out of the water making
learning your first spin in a hole or on a wave much easier, or freeing
the expert boater up to think about other things.
Who should get the 2010 Fun Series?
This boat is your one boat does it all boat. Run about any river or
play about any feature. If you are learning to paddle and want the
fastest learning curve, while still being able to get on as many new
rivers as possible, the Fun is just that. If you are an expert wanting
to run hard stuff, but still want to play your way down, the Fun is the
ticket.
Sizing? We are doing three sizes of the 2010 Model. 2 Fun, Fun, and 4
Fun. If you are a really little person or a really large person- we
have the Fun 1, Fun 1.5, and the 2007 Super Fun for you still in full
production.
