this was from 8 months ago when the local river was in flood - it's fun paddling through the vegetation which at normal water levels, is 'unkayakable' up on the river banks
my kayak is orange and plastic and so far hasn't been crushed and the kayaker is getting on but still able to have fun above and below the water
every paddler has their own way of doing fun - i like a responsive kayak, a greenland paddle, clear moving water with lots of space, spray backlit by a low angle sun and.... water up your sinuses - hope you are getting some!
