Middle Middle of the Snoqualmie River at 2300 CFS
Testing out the Pyranha Firecracker and the Level Six Ace Spray Skirt on some class 3 whitewater was a blast with 2300 cfs at the end of June after a rain event. So fun squirting and splatting and surfing the river with friends. Music: Party Rock Anthem (feat. Lauren Bennett & Goonrock).

The feel of a wood paddle on a winter day is warmth! The Skykomish River at 2,700 cfs has great small boofs the whole way down. Washington State Whitewater during a lower flow day always provides an option for a low water Sky lap. Song: Comin' Home; By: City and Colour

Tilton with a Full Circle Paddle
Просмотров 4978 месяцев назад
Great first day with the Full Circle Paddle, the Tilton at 2,500 cfs has a log in the bottom of Leap of Faith rapid. Be very careful. I imagine at lower flows you can't boat over this and the eddy is not a bit one for a quick portage... We had an inflatable kayaker swim under the log in our group and another kayaker get stuck on the log as well and swam out. Boat safe!

Launching on Thursday May 18th a small group descended from Marsh Creek to the confluence of the Middle Fork of the Salmon and the Main Salmon. There was one bad wood jam we portaged on the right in Marsh Creek, and snuck another hard left. The Rams Horn Bridge was almost in the water as we floated by too. What a ride, it was 7.3 or higher when we got to the takeout on May 21st. Music: Nathanie...

As in india, we don't get kayak, so I have to get it from the US or London or Canada.. I want to buy a kayak that could last me good amount of time ... 😊

    • @PaddlingLife
      @PaddlingLife 11 месяцев назад

      There are many options for kayaks out there, if you are new to the sport it is best to purchase a used boat and learn in that. Many kayakers take boats to nepal and sell them there....

    • @PaddlingLife
      @PaddlingLife Год назад

      Works great with the SUP. The concern might be the PFD getting caught on the edge of the SUP when trying to climb back on but honestly I've never noticed it. The range of movement is really good.

    Where could I get the inflatable bladder you mention for extra buoyancy in emergencies for this Stohlquist jacket? I've been concerned about the issue ever since getting injured in whitewater and realizing the flotation I had wasn't near enough in such a situation. Fortunately, I was rescued.

    Great video. Thanks. I just bought one of these from REI ( I'm 5'8" 175 lbs 173cm 80kg) I should've just bought two large and medium and then just kept the one that fit. (Instead I bought large, thought okay. But at home I ordered a medium. Back to the store tried it on. Much better fit, returned the other one. So for my height, weight Medium- still loose. Full movement no problem. Easy to get on.

    Good review. Terrific that it was done by someone who actually wore it and used it. (How many times is outdoor gear presented by cute kids, always wearing khaki, pointing at the gear on a table?) I wish I'd seen this video a week ago. (I just bought a Mustang). Google is broken, no matter what criteria I put into the search box for dry suits, I got exactly the same (mostly second rate) results. It's like Google/Alphabet sold advertising and weren't going to 'find' anything else. Also, the web pages for the various companies were usually incomplete. (Is it neoprene or latex? Often they didn't say.) It was a real headache finding a drysuit. (I finally went with the Mustang because I could get it through REI, pick it up at the store and try it on first. The large fit, but I then ordered a medium. When that comes I'll keep the one that fits, return the other. I'm a paddler, but mostly I want it for sailing in higher latitudes. )

    Could this product be used for snow hiking keeping you warm ?

    • @PaddlingLife
      @PaddlingLife 2 года назад

      The Level 6 Emperor would certainly keep you dry and warm with the right layers worn underneath but it wouldn't be ideal for snow hiking. Typically snow gear has breathable fabric with venting. When hiking in the snow it's a constant battle to not overheat while exerting yourself and then not freeze when not stationary.
