Never give a match up halfway through. Never say that you do not feel up to it, that your condition is bad, and throw in the towel. Fight to the very end, always looking for your chance to break through.

why don't they just throw out those lame foot braces and put some grill meshing in its place?

I don't know about the grill meshing, but I'm surprised you didn't recommend  a set of torsion bars or struts for each seat  rofl

Would somebody please offer a better DB at about the same price as the Gems and permanently put those bozos out of business? I'm seriously starting to lose faith in the free market economy if people can sell crap and continue to get away with it.

hmm.. Considering that DragonZone and FCRCC have 7 boats between them and I believe Victoria is selling their two... that would leave two Gemini's needed for Alcan's nine lanes... I wonder if ADBF picked up Victoria's two or if they bought two of these.

One of the Ocean Pacific gemini's from Victoria was on the floating dock at DragonZone on Monday night, so I think it's safe to say that we won't be seeing the new version of the Gemini at Alcan.

You know Guido, it's amazing what you learn when you basically listen to people when they're talking.  You should try it sometimes.

I beg you wrong on the new version Chaos.  I was privileged enough to sit in one of the Ocean River gemini's and noticed that it had some engraving on the seats.....it was really quite neat actually.  It also had a dragon engraved on the steersperson's area as well...I thought it was pretty cool.....you should check it out.

But Chaos....I just don't see myself adopting that kind of skill.  You must be gifted....so many years of experience....can it be taught?
