What is a c1 by Landon Miller

What is a c1 you might be asking yourself.  A lot of people who haven’t been kayaking for a while have no idea what it is, but it’s really basic . C1ing is where you are in a kayak, but your not sitting down you are in fact on your knees.  All kayaking company’s don’t make c1s because there is a really small market for them and are out fitted to your body type and the way you fit in your c1, there for you rarely see them.  Also a c1 is using a one bladed paddle instead of a two bladed paddle.  There are a lot of different  concepts on why this is but personally I have no idea.  So basically all that a c1 is that you are kneeling in a kayak using a one bladed paddle. Some of the advantages of being a c1er is that you have a lot more leverage and for some people more comfort.
