I'm a big fan of the channel -- thanks for producing such great videos! I'd like to offer an idea for a future episode: as a new paddler, I have what appears to be a common new-paddler challenge which is having my legs/feet become numb after a short while (30-60min on the water). There appears to be some common tweaks (leg bolsters, different kinds of seats, etc, along with proper posture and position) that are advised and I'd welcome a video with your take on it. I bet others would as well. In short, what are some of the best ways to modify or augment a cockpit to help minimize the numbing that can happen with new paddlers who are eager to be on the water more than an hour at a time? Just an idea--thanks!
Damn good point about the MREs. When one is hungry, especially in the field, on a camping trip, etc., everything tastes amazing. Another excellent review video!
fun reviews Ken...I am in northern New Mexico (USA) and both a white-water kayaker and backpacker so I will definitely be checking out the Colorado based dehydrated food company. Thanks!
Awesome reviews! Some really great items! FWIW. I think the name of the cooler is pronounced JOE-Cass-see. I think it is from the name of the lake in South Carolina. I look forward to seeing what I can find out about the items! I like the cooler’s size, and ESPECIALLY the cost. Very affordable.
@@PaddleTV Ah yes. The wonders of accents. They are so much fun. I don’t think I would EVER have known how to pronounce it if I hadn’t lived in the area for a period of time. Thank you very much for your continuing reviews! They are really great. They have influenced my paddling experience in a number of ways.
I have a lot of hobbies. When we moved to a little lake town last month, I knew I needed to pick up some kind of water sport, or I'd go out of my mind. One of your videos (I am ashamed to admit that I don't remember which one) popped up while doing some cursory googling, and I proceeded to consume most of your backlog in a week. Anyway, the point I'm trying to make is that, when it comes to videos like these for _most_ of my hobbies, I end up skipping them, because they're usually just a bunch of sponsored products that the CZcamsr pushes in order to keep their channel afloat. (ha!) I don't have any problem with that, mind you; creators gotta eat, too. I just find that the videos aren't very helpful to me. Your videos _never_ have this feeling. As a result, I just bought a RapidPure filter bottle, and a few of those dehydrated meals. Thanks for making such great, wholesome, educational videos. I wish more of my hobbies had folks like you making videos for them.
This video made me laugh, too funny. That stuff is not really affordable but interesting to know that it exists I guess. I had to change on my front seat the time I fell in the water out of my kayak. Difficult to do. But it was either that or drive home wet.
I use deWalt contractor safety glasses "smoke" At £3 a pair, I dont mind losing them. Ear plugs are a bad idea, wont hear my vhf radio. Changing robes? errr we have naked cycling and nudist beaches here. Minimalist is my way, water bottle, radio & electronic flare. Dry bag with mixed nuts and light weight towel.
Swimmers Ear sucks. It feels like a horse kicked you in the head. If you do get water in your ear, I'm not a doctor but it's when I put polysprorin ear drops in and hopefully stop it from occurring at all

Great idea David. It is a VERY common problem, and unfortunately it drives a lot of people away from kayaking. Stay tuned for this video!
LifeStraw PERSONAL WATER FILTER, they are great, we used them in our remote medical mission trips. Also used by Red Cross, Doctors Without Borders.

😆 Yes. Even Spam taste good in the field.
A rechargeable headlamp with front and back lights would be useful for a kayaker in low light conditions.

cool as always - thanks a lot !!
Cheers Ronny!
Highly amused by your antics!
Got a dealer for the sun glasses near me, going to check them out, maybe get a pair with my prescription, another great gear review.

Thanks for the correction. That's the Canadian accent coming through! :).

Thanks Christopher! I appreciate it. Hope you enjoy both!

Ha! DryRobe is definitely not a requirement when you launch near a nudist colony.
Do they make a pair of sunglasses that fit over prescription eyewear?
I don't think they do... they do make prescription sunglasses though.
I can't imagine being on the water without my polarized prizm Oakley's.
Please stop using my test message chime in your videos. Think I checked my text messages a dozen times during this video. Lol😂

Yes, what is wrong with it ....?
