Rolling a child's kayak
Просмотров 4125 месяцев назад
I got a children's kayak from a friend (thanks Raphael) and did a big job to get it in a good, and beautiful, working order. I changed all deck fittings, put in two hatches, put in new foot pegs (Kayak Sport) and painted it red. Here I'm testing it for the first time as a rolling kayak for smaller persons. It will work great. Mostly it will be used by my grand children. I do not have the brand ...

    No pumps on any deck? No paddle floats rolled up? No short tow or long tow lines? This awesome video shows a mix of many great skills and a few missing things. Everyone was very cool calm and collected and well practiced in what they did, but she did not seem to have an instinctive roll. Maybe she does and another factor played in that I did not see.

    Great video, very informative. I have the habit now, for a couple years, of everyone lining up when spray skirts first get on, and everyone goes hands on to every kayak beside them to very quickly inspect every kayak lid on each kayak, starting from rudder, skegs for rocks, stern to bow, and finally to check that each compass is pointing to the same bearing. Once had a small cast iron frying pan under a hatch throwing one persons compass off 12 degrees. Checks help! Thanks for posting.

    • @JonasAlexanderson
      @JonasAlexanderson 2 месяца назад

      Hi, well a somewhat hard question to answer as it got two different answers. The PE Etain is a barge! If you are going to use it for mostly day trips it will be very boring on the other hand it’s an ok expedition kayak. The fibre glass version is better as it got a bit of rocker and is lighter. But if you are looking for a somewhat bigger kayak that is nice to paddle in most conditions, the Nordkapp is a much better option. If you don’t have too much gear or don’t do multi day expeditions I can highly recommend the Anas Acuta.
