Awesome Illusion Paint Job
Thanks to Peter for sending me some photos of a new Illusion that was just delivered to a customer. The paint scheme is identical to what I will be getting with the high white sides. The exception is mine will be high vis yellow instead of the international orange of this kayak. I’ll be working a second job next week that should give me the money to pay it off. Can’t wait. Hopefully I’ll have it next month as I just signed up for a Body Boat Blade class and would love to have this high performance boat to get the most out of the class. The class is Performance Paddling. I have often thought I am a very inefficient paddler. I hope that this class will tune me up.
Here are some photos of the high white Illusion. I was told by somebody that they thought it looked like a gym shoe. Is that a good thing? I love the way it looks. I think the white really pops out.

The high white seems to minimize the high rocker look.
Just a great photo of a high vis yellow Illusion.

I’ve taken a few BBB classes. They are great investments in paddling skills. Plus Shawna and Leon and just really good people to paddle with. One thing: they work you hard so spend a lot of time getting in condition. the stronger you are, the more fun you’ll have.
Nice boat BTW. The paint job gives it panache.
