We are going to try a new feature over the next couple of weeks – it’s Social Media Saturday or Sunday, I haven’t decided which yet. It’s going to be a round up of a few interesting things spotted on Instagram and such like.
It’s Monday and you are at Unsponsored so it must be Movie Monday. Welcome to Movie Monday 12 February 2018.
Enjoy!
The Royal Flush is on its way. The new kayak will be 276cm long, and 67cm wide. This means the Royal Flush is not designed to fit in the sub 9ft racing category.
Clearly the April Fool post from Pyranha this year has gained some traction. They announced the production of a 12R long boat seven months ago as a bit of a joke but it seems that they are actually going to put it into production if they get enough preorders.
Having just been discussing the lack of new boats from ZET over the last few days it looks like they do have a new kayak for 2018. From the specifications it looks like the Five is designed to address the challenges from the new crop of short (sub 9ft) whitewater kayaks.
ZET kayaks introduces the FIVE, the fifth boat in its lineup. Developed together with top paddlers and the ZET team, this new kayak brings all the components a kayaker can wish for in a boat for active moves on whitewater. FIVE is an aggressive whitewater boat, gliding nicely over waves and holes, accelerating like a demon and holding its line without any reduction in speed.
Welcome to Unsponsored and Movie Monday 23 October 2017.

Welcome to Movie Monday 16 October 2017 here at Unsponsored. A little distraction at the start of the working week.
Enjoy!
Dragorossi have released the new DR9. The DR9 is their take on the sub 9ft race kayak.
I met with the guys from Spade Kayaks almost two years ago in Nuremberg at the Paddle Expo. Despite the Ace of Spades only being out for a short period of time I asked them about the next kayak. Even then a design called the Black Jack or “Jack” was already being thought about.
Today (22 August 2017) the Black Jack will start coming of the production line. The Ace of Spades, Spade kayaks first production kayak was and still is blow molded.
If Unsponsored were to design and release a brand new kayak into the current market place what would it look like?
Lets go through a few design ideas and see where we end up.
