Jackson have launched the new Clutch. The Clutch is a single sized whitewater kayak that blurs the lines between a creek boat and a halfslice.
Continue readingEver feel torn between a creek boat or half slice? Introducing the Clutch, a ‘creek/slice’ combination designed to make the most of any river. It is fully creekable and has a playable stern. The Clutch combines the high-riding, confidence-inspiring performance of the Gnarvana with a sleek, lower-rockered stern carefully engineered to boost speed, shred surfs, launch waves, and squirt eddy lines. This kayak is nimble, skips, and is forgiving. The result is a unique mix of confidence and creativity that might change how you see your river. Try it and you’ll find – Clutch performance with every stroke. Available in one size: M|L

The GoPro Hero 12 has a memory card capacity of up to 1TB. Due to the increase in performance of the GoPro Hero 13 I would suggest using cards that are 128GB or above. GoPro recommend cards from 32GB to 1TB in capacity for the Hero13.
