How to set up a Bear Hang using a 3:1 Z Pulley System
I would highly recommend to canoeist that they consider selecting an Ostrom Outdoors Canoe Pack. For long trips I highly recommend the Wabakimi Canoe Pack with an internal frame. These packs are completely customized to your torso, shoulders and hips. No other manufacturer offers a pack like Ostrom’s. Why? These are designed by canoeist and tested by canoeist and manufactured to the highest possible standards.
Sooo..... Apparently I was holding my bent shaft paddle backwards 😆😆😆 good to know.
Yeah, I'm just super weak.
I gotta say for us older guys the same technique but done farther to one end is a whole lot easier..just sayin
Would you start buying the saw or the tomahawk ?
Really good thank you from Brazil !
How many feet is this canoe?
Love your intro video, yewww
thanks for the info, I was wondering if you have any opinion on standard packs interfering with the fitment of the canoe yolks.
In my experience it often depends on how ur bag is packed, I find if it’s over stuffed and the lid of the pack is resting too high up, it can certainly interfere, especially if the pack is touching the canoe above your head. I’d say play around with it, move things around and try to pack it in such a way that the canoe yolk rests nicely on your shoulders, I even have found that if packed optimally it can often help with the stability of the canoe on your shoulders even making it easier to balance. Each pack is different so their will always be variations in fit and sizing but make sure the fit is right for you and that they don’t sit too high as packs that are too tall don’t portage well. Hope this was helpful, happy tripping.
Love this method, use it all the time now, thanks for the video!!!!
Thank you!!! This is exactly what I needed to weed through all the options! I appreciate the knowledge from affordable to ultra competitive, but delivered in a quick and efficient review! Well done! Paddle on, dude.
Thanks for a great video. Is there any difference in sizing for solo pack canoes, since you're sitting low in the boat. I'll probably be using a kayak paddle most of the time, but I want to have a canoe paddle too for tight spaces where it's hard to swing a kayak paddle.
Awesome info… researching paddles for my new solo canoe
Thanks man great video and great technique short and to the point
Respectfully, this is not a C stroke, this is a sweep. A C stroke is much like a J stroke, but at the beginning of the stroke you reach forward and out, with a slight draw towards the boat. You then continue along the boat and finish like a traditional J stroke. The true C stroke is the backwards geometry to what you demonstrate. It's a great stroke to use when powering from a stop as the draw motion swings the bow towards the paddle a bit, correcting for the yaw of the power portion of the stroke...
That wasn't a proper bowline
That was great, thanks man!
So, I got 30” cause I’m about 220 with my pack, but they seemed a little much with an already well broken trail. Can I size down? I am using them to hike high peaks, but there aren’t too many tough scrambles on the trails I’m looking at, but will be doing some bushwhacking. Already prepping for next winter. Thanks!
If it’s a well broken track particularly with already packed snow u should be fine to size down a little bit, but if you’ll be Bush whacking in deep snow any smaller and you won’t have adequate “Floatation” in the snow, it really depends on the snow conditions. Have a good one out there!
Sweet vid bro! Thanks and happy paddling.
Perfect
Nailed it!
Love this video... A must view for anyone considering buying a new backpack for their next adventure!
Cool video!
Great information. Lots to consider when getting a pack. Thanks
Great content. Thanks man!
This is the best video I watched about portable water filtration and purification with a clear explanation of everything I was trying to learn. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience!
No problem, Glad you found it useful!
Cool tips man, thanks for the info!
Cool!
Right on!
Nice short video, str8 to the point and well put together! Btw love the animal snippets at the end of your videos!
Very helpful thanks for the info!
Great Video.. Thanks for the info and effort you put in to it!
Not for OC-1 or OC-6 outrigger paddling
Agreed, thanks for the input. This video is not for an outrigger canoe. It was made for paddlers looking to choose a paddle for a standard canoe in both tandem and solo settings, whether it be for wilderness canoe tripping, whitewater or for recreation.
Thanks!
i enjoyed this video thank you
Boring
Slower film speed, please, and do each knot twice so that it's clearer visually.
What ifs you don't have a yoke on your canoe?
That makes things difficult, canoes like that aren’t really meant to be carried solo. I’d say carry it tandem or get a canoe / kayak cart for it. Although, I have found that with some aluminum canoes, (ie. sportspal) you can carry em solo with a pack using the thwart closest to the center of the canoe, although you may need to spin it around and carry it backwards for weight distribution.
@@TheTrippingAuthority thanks for the reply and for the information.
