Gobi Gear Hoboroll

13 April 2013 / / 0 Comments

The Gobi Gear Hoboroll is a double draw corded stuff sack. It is designed to help you organise and carry your gear.

Any stuff sack can do that, but the Hoboroll is slightly different from the normal stuff sack that you find in outdoor gear stores. The big thing that sets the Hoboroll apart from the others is that is is divided internally in to five sections. This allows you to organise your kit rather than just stuff it into the same area. The Hoboroll also has drawcords at each end allowing you access to your kit from both sides. Continue reading

Boats

Dragorossi 88 (big boat) – I wanted a boat that had the speed of a Zet Raptor and boofed a little easier like the Liquidlogic Stomper. The 88 seemed to do meet this criteria. I was blown away by how easily it punched water features and the speed it carried out from the bottom of a rapid. Continue reading

New Boat

12 April 2013 / / 1 Comment

A new (to me) boat arrived this morning.

It’s been a fair few years since I have sat in a Riot Glide and it’s amazing how much kayak design has changed over the last 15-16 years.

Oakley Water Jackets

11 April 2013 / / 2 Comments

The Oakley Water jacket is a development of the original Oakley Racing Jackets and were specifically developed for use by top pro-surfers in the Oakley team. In the UK a set of Oakley Water jackets will set you back around £150+, in the US a little less. So what do you get for all of that cash? Well all Water Jackets come with hydrophobic solution (which prevents water droplet build up), H20 strap, micro clear bag, and protective case. Is it all worth £150?

2013 Dagger Mamba – First Paddle

11 April 2013 / / 3 Comments

The Mamba from Dagger has been around since 2005 and has become a firm favourite with paddlers at all levels. Over the last couple of years Dagger’s designers and test paddlers have been working on making the Mamba even better, the result has been some major design changes that have brought the Mamba bang up to date. In many senses the 2013 Mamba is a completely new boat.
