Rollers,

In a competition, which type of kayak would win? I mean a speed race, not an expedition or a long leg.
The carbon fiber? How would an Inuit sof rank? Canvassed or skinned? An alu take-apart? A strip-planked?
A rotomolded? A s*it-on-top? Others (there were paper canoes, so why not paper kayaks?)? Which one would score last?
