Sprint Kayaks
by: Jakob Jelling
Sprint kayaks are harder to keep upright than regular kayaks.
Sprint kayaks are the best type of kayaks for people who are intending to race. While you will probably not need to have your own kayak when you first start out (if you are racing on a school team of some type), eventually you will probably want to get your own sprint kayak that will highlight your particular skills and make it easier for you to race.

Sony HD camcorder
by: Kenny Hemphill
The Sony HD camcorder, the Handycam HDR-FX1 is being marketed by the company as ‘world's first HDV 1080i consumer camcorder’. But at $3,700, it’s price tag is stretching the consumer label somewhat.
