Today is July 12 and it has been a long while since I
worked on this web site, My Apologies ! Kevin.
Spring/Summer have been very busy here at Country Ski
and Sports. All three store are on a roll.
Bicycles have been rolling out the doors, ah,ah, boats are floating out also.
So what is new and exciting, in bicycles that would be Electra, with
their "flat foot technology". Five foot or shorter folks can set on a
bike and put both feet flat on the ground. There is also very cool
styling. Not race influenced but cool cruising styling, you will have to
see them for yourself.
TJ from the Wellsboro store just qualified for Nationals. Good luck TJ.!
On the boating side we added Dagger kayaks to the mix, nice boats at
attractive prices.
Really new, just last week, Jackson Recreation Boats arrived these rec.
boats are the perfect on "Golden Pond" kayaks. They look like
canoes only sized like kayaks. They resemble Wee lasse' canoes, wide
open cockpits large enough for you and child or dog. These will be the
perfect angler kayaks, short, 10 foot or 12 foot, stable, you might want
to stand up to cast, sleek and surprisingly fast on the water. Plus they
come with accessories. This is a Jackson Kayak so there must be a
kids model and it is a true kids kayak
called the Mini Tripper sized and priced truly for kids.
One of our local paddlers, Curt Smithgall, just won
the Junior Olympic Wildwater Gold Medal. Great work Curt!
