    Your videos were something I really looked forward to each week when I was having cancer treatment and longing to be well and back in my kayak. Your channel has also helped me choose gear and learn about SUP paddling. Now that I'm quite OK I still enjoy your adventures but I totally understand it can become a chore to produce content to meet a timetable. I look forward to you and Erika having adventures in the backyard and beyond. Thank you from Janet.

    There are possibly many phones that get ruined by water. If I am near water with my device, I put it in a plastic zip loc™ bag which are easily available or a dry bag. My current phone is a Ulefone Armor 12 which can be immersed in water but it doesn't float. Attaching floats to it is a good idea. I detest knowing that there are phones in lakes and rivers that will eventually detoriate and cause pollution. Ulefone also manufactures rugged tablets as well as rugged phones.

    I really recognize the feeling, from back in the (web) blogging era. But consider at least having a notebook, or a text file on your phone, where you write down video ideas, as soon as they pop up in your head. So you have ideas to choose from, one the inspiration comes back. Also, a chill video from your backyard once in a while is very welcome.

    On the 26th June, I was down in Dartmouth, Devon on holiday. That day was also hot and sunny, and I was lucky enough to have a wonderful paddle down the River Dart and out to sea to explore a little bit of the coastline. We stopped at a beach for a snack before heading back to Dartmouth. My longest SUP paddle to-date. I think we worked it out about 7.5km. When you pulled the temperature gage out of the water, I was expecting you to pull out a bottle of beer, chilled by the water 🙂

    Thanks for the video! Itiwit should make a QA user manual for this model :) How much straight should the deck be ? In other words: How much space should be left under the center of the kayak if I turn it upside down on a flat ground?

      Thanks, happy that you appreciate my video. I guess they never would do something like that. It's a great kayak so it´s sad that it seems to be so much problem with it. This is the only problem I have had so far and Decathlon replaced it. But a lot of people have different problems with the kayak.

    Thanks for sharing your latest outdoor adventure. The bike and trailer gives you more options. What lovely conditions you had for your paddle - although 14 degrees C sounds freezing cold to me! I was shocked to see the power boat in the distance. Our rivers have many power boats and jet skis and some of the drivers give the paddlers a bad time, which is why it's best to paddle an ocean ski. If you fall in you can climb back on and the ski doesn't fill up with water. They also easily crest the wake from the power boats.

      Thanks for watching!😍 Yes a lot of option, I prefer the car because It´s goes so fast and I don´t need to deflate at home, than at the water inflate/deflate and inflate back home. Yes I said to myself, I don´t need to film this, than I thought about your comment last week and said to myself, maybe I should put the only one I saw on the lake that day. So in the future I might do that. This is a stony lake, so they take it slow and are careful. On other lakes they are more boat traffic. People seems around here to be care about kayakers and stand up paddlers and be nice, som exception. Normally they tend to go slower if you stand up paddle, I guess they thinks it´s harder but normally that gives bigger wake and it becomes harder, maybe that is what they want😂 I also have a boat and been boating a lot more in my life than paddling but paddling is making big strides in boating now.🤗

    At first when I saw the title I thought you had gotten tired of carrying the kayak the few meters down to the river and wanted to use a trolley 😂 Turns out that looked really convenient though - a lot better than biking with 18+ kg on your back!

    • @danerik.westerlind
      @danerik.westerlind 24 дні тому

      You made me laugh, you know me, don’t like to carry heavy down to the river. 😊 not a fan of deflate and inflate but sometimes it could be a thing and as you say, much better than have it on my back!🙌🤗
