Only thing is there’s a tree in the main section.. you could maybe run it on the left but it kinda pushes you to the right! You can inspect from the road though if you get it in higher water.

    • @connorproud
      @connorproud 6 місяців тому

      I liked it! Just as capable as any one of the more expensive half slices out. Similar to a sort of mix between the ripper 2 and a rewind. Very smooth feeling on the water, but kinda heavy feeling too (good and a bad thing) There is a sense of you get what you pay for, handles and metalwork are a cheap chrome (bit rattley), not sure about the plastic but I’m sure it’ll last regular abuse so long as you’re not ragging it around. I think it’s well worth a punt for the price if you’re after something cheap (it’s cheaper than used now ha) Definitely try one out first though for yourself. Boats paddle similar but not exact person to person : )

    Clean line on lower Kisdon, that's not easy to pull off! Ths is the low side of medium if anything, you don't want to run the boof line on Rainby any lower than that. Rainby boof vs rainby slide line is the border between medium and low (about 1m, 1.1m on the gauge).

      @@connorproud The online gauge is usually slow to update, there's the physical gauge under the bridge, but we always just kind of look at Rainby and how well-defined the lip is. If it looks like you're gonna touch rock on the lip, it might be time to think about the slide line (under 1.0m, maybe even as low as 0.9) - not an exact science, but you want the landing to be soft, I've at least one friend break their back on a bad landing off Rainby, and you can't get away with plugging too hard as it's not that deep.
