The kayak are designed for the river. The video is shot from a Pyhrana Burn - a white water creek boat. The others are club boats which tend to not be too edgey and no to short so the track reasonably.

Good morning my friend, thank you so much for creating and sharing this amazing experience with us. I truly needed this, as I feel stuck in my life right now and was a big adventure person in the past, but somehow I lost that. So coming across these helps a lot to push me back to the roots. Thank you and wishing you all the best on your journeys :)

@paul_smart2 жыл бұрын
This is the River Dee in Scotland, from Balmoral to Dinnet (unfortunatly battery failed before Dinnet which is a good grade 3 rapid). The river is at a moderate winter level 1 m on the SEPA Polliholik gauge).
