  • In this episode of Dan Escapes I struggle with lockdown and assemble my lidl kayak that I bought for £39.99, hopefully one day we can fully test it out for a proper review.

    Did you bother using the measuring strip guide for correct inflation? I've lost mine and cannot find any online references for what it is, is it in centimetres? If so what is the key points on it?

      I haven’t used it he measuring strip, not sure I saw one. Does it give you the correct psi to inflate to? My pump doesn’t have a pressure gage so wouldn’t be able to get it correct. I can try and have a look but it’s buried in the depths of my loft

      @@DanEscapes Mah it's fine, I belive it's in centermeters, the instructions say get it to 10 centimeters first inflation, after that, somewhere between 10 and 11cm, not definate information, just was I think I've figured out. Quite annoying there is zero information to find on it online form any resources considering it's likely to get lost being just a bit of card or whatever lol

    Hi Dan, I just dropped by to congratulate you on being the only human being on all CZcams smart enough to realize there was a mistake in every cheap Chinese copy of European kayaks that says the triangle is a footrest.
    Those who have kayaks for many years know that this triangle is used so that the paddle doesn't go to the bottom if it falls into the water.
    Congrats on your IQ.

    • @DanEscapes
      @DanEscapes  Před 2 lety +1

      I know! If I had used that triangle as a foot rest the paddle would end up in the depths of the deep blue. Next thing you know I have hired out ocean X, jumped in their deep sea submarine and descended into the unknown. Whilst making the pilot explore aimlessly on the sea bed, I contemplate my life choices and think if only I had just stuck that footrest on the paddle I wouldn’t be enjoying this amazing experience and seeing the amazing creatures of the deep. As our air supply is about to run out the pilot starts our ascent to the surface. I catch a reflection from the light beams from the sub, I grab the pilots bulging bicep with a firm grip and yell “over there!”
      As we get closer we don’t see just one cheap Chinese paddle but thousands used for a gigantic statue in the shape of me,the only part missing was the top of my head! To the left of the statue a goblin shark was picking up a paddle at a time from a pile to build the rest of the statue.
      An alarm goes off warning us our air is dangerously low and it is time to ascend. As the pilot takes us to topside, it was then I realised by using the triangle as a foot rest that lone goblin shark could finish the top of my head to the statue.
      Thanks for watching my video, really appreciate it!
