I disagree. This should be brought up periodically in order to educate
people who may be considering them based on the misinformation provided
by you-know-who. Not only will it save people money, it may save a life.
If one were to believe Tim-bo, one might be led to believe that they
need not carry much more important safety gear or learn vital paddling
skills, since he portrays sponsons as a safety panacea. Paddlers need to
know the truth about the lack of utility of sponsons.


I agree with Brian. I was through the last war or 2 when Timmy plagued RBP.
I don't want to see his return, but I do believe that his "safety" product
should be discussed. If we stifle discussion on sponsons, novices won't have
any view but Timmy's.
