NORTHSEAKAYAK - P&H Valkyrie Fast Sea Kayak

I’m a hardened P&H fan and would lie to you if I said I waited patiently for a true P&H fast sea kayak. I was like a kid waiting for his new toy to come, and I was excited when P&H finally announced that they would produce the very first polyethylene sea kayak. I hear some of you thinking, there is nothing new about a fast sea kayak anymore… but still P&H managed (as always) to create something that distinguishes from others. It’s a very specific boat I can tell you! A full review will be published very soon!!

One of the best short sweet sea kayaking vids.

[@Northseakayak]

Thanks Mark, one of the best compliments we can get!👌💪😊

[@tekumserastadt906]

One day I want to master my kajak on the high seas to this perfection, even though I'm almost 60 .

[@Northseakayak]

We wish you all the best! Beeing able to roll is a bonus as it makes things easier, and a solid self rescue in this sea state is really a must. Cheers! :-)

[@worldsnomad]

Fantastic video, it felt like a whole movie in a few minutes 👌 👏👏 I only watched it a few times 👍

[@Northseakayak]

Waw, thanks a lot! Glad you enjoyed the ride!😊👍

[@kayasper6081]

Beautiful, compact and powerful motivation for our beloved sea kayak sport! Congratulations with this excellent video

[@Northseakayak]

Thank you do much, we do appreciate such positive comments!!👍👌😊

[@thomasbechtelmechtl5405]

Emotinal, just feeling free 👍 Great video again. Thank you

[@Northseakayak]

Thank you also for the positive comment, much appreciated! Cheers! :-) (y)

[@slabbyrider8665]

@0:48 👍 exactly why the wife and I are starting sea kayaking. Should have discovered it 20years ago.

[@Northseakayak]

This is what freedom feels like, zo glad you discovered sea kayaking. All the best, be safe and have fun!👌😊😄

[@davejane100]

Another great clip thank you

[@Northseakayak]

You're welcome, glad you like it!!👍👌

[@AlvarDT]

I just subscribed to your channel today. Amazing videos. You are a true sea monster. The conditions you face are much harder than those in the tropical waters where I occasionally paddle. Best of luck and thanks.

[@Northseakayak]

Thank you so much for your kind words Sergio!! Glad you are also kayaking, it's a fine sport and it bring people all over the world together! All the best, paddle safe and have fun!!😊👌

[@PaddlinDutchman]

that was an awesome film dude!! Right on!

[@Northseakayak]

Hi neighbour, thanks for the compliment, much appreciated!👌😊

[@HG-oh5nn]

Thanks for the video of the valkyrie !

[@Northseakayak]

You're welcome! Thanks for watching!👍👌

[@masterbaric]

So powerful video. It makes me check my Scorpio 2 if still there.

[@Northseakayak]

Thank you so much! Love the Scorpio as much, Sylvie (my wife) paddles one and I did so before switching to a composite Cetus. Cheers!😊👌

[@didivanh8718]

Na Jarenlang enkel rivieren te doen, ben ik nu wel benieuwd om in het voorjaar naar de kust te gaan :D geweldige editing op deze video, top!

[@Northseakayak]

Dankjewel hoor! Ja, de zee heeft elke dag iets anders, verveelt nooit! Geniet ervan!👌😊

[@msessen73]

Great!

[@Northseakayak]

Thank you!!👍😍

[@vbgroupdesign7921]

Very good! 💪👍

[@Northseakayak]

Thank you!!😉👍👌

[@davebeckmann476]

It looks to be a narrow and fast boat. It appears to have less rocker than other P&H models and must track straighter. I see hard chines for good secondary stability. The hull appears almost flat and may not have as much primary stability. The lower back deck should make back-deck rolls easier, and the high front deck probably make it easier to get in and out of. I'm curious to hear how it really handled.

[@Northseakayak]

Hi Dave, you nailed it! I have a full review ready to be published very soon. Thanks for your comments!😎😉👌

[@worldsnomad]

.... Still watching it 👌

[@Northseakayak]

Haha, cheers! I also sometimes look back on The Run series.🌊👌 Speed and waves!

[@shaneshankly4518]

You truly are a force as great as nature 💥💥💪💪 🙏🙏

[@Northseakayak]

Hahaha, feeling more like a tiny guy in a wild sea!😁💪🌊

[@shaneshankly4518]

Well thats not what we see 😂😂 I can only dream of having such control

[@tonytrevorrow1280]

The Valkyrie of Old Norse,speedily carried her chosen warrior to Valhalla,here it carries Dimitri across to those special places on the Ocean,where he yearns to be.North Sea Kayak the top crew.

[@Northseakayak]

Hahaha Tony, seems you are a true NSK fan! Greetings from the team, and thanks for your support!!👍👌😉

[@kayakintro]

Still one of favourite videos on KZbin 😊 I see you remount it from the back and then sit inside and then bring your legs in. Is it easy or do you need to be flexible? I just got a Current Designs Squall and it is my first sea kayak where I need to slide my legs inside first because the cockpit is too narrow.

[@Northseakayak]

Thank you sooooo much!! Correct about the cockpit and self rescue. First bum, than legs indeed. If you have an ocean cockpit (smaller), then a re-entry and roll is the solution (still need to remove water afterwards), or you can perform the heel-hook self rescue (see our video instructional section on self rescue). That last cost a bit of extra time to inflate the paddle-float, but works fine for the rest. Have a try! Best of luck.

[@Bad_Batch_65]

Very cool 😎

[@Northseakayak]

Thanks!!👍👌😊

[@user-lw3el8uo7d]

멋집니다~^^ That's cool.

[@Northseakayak]

Thank you!!😉👌😊

[@mortenh1962]

Excellent video, seen it a few times now. Really makes you wanna paddle away 😍. And great music...what is it?

[@Northseakayak]

Hi, thank you for these great comments. Always nice to hear. The first part is The Trainyard from the videogame Rainbow Six, second part is unknown record free music to avoid advertising. Cheers!👌👍😊

[@morethan4mph]

Very nice video, both subject and the production! I only had a very short time in the valkyrie on flat water near the factory but I had been paddling my K1 a short time before and the valkyrie felt very fast and easy for a sea boat - usually sea boats feel like barges after paddling an 8kg race kayak - it also turned very predicably. Maybe I should go back and try it on the sea?

[@Northseakayak]

Thank you for the nice compliments!! It took us 1 day of filming, and a full day of editing but it was worth it, seen at the reactions of the viewers. And yes, the Valkyrie is a fast boat. I am busy writing a full review also. Cheers, Dimitri 👍👌😊

[@cyberghost4572]

I would like to know more about clothes your wearing. ie. what brand is that jacket and pants are neoprene ? Could you please point me out to right direction. Cool video, keep them coming. Make gear video of different kayaking clothing, that would be something nobody has done.

[@JohnSmith-rh5kg]

Great Video

[@Northseakayak]

Thank you Mark!👍👌😊

[@jimwortham8634]

That gentleman can paddle a kayak good good

[@Northseakayak]

Well thank you Jim for the Nice compliment!!👍👌😊

[@raman5329]

Lovely! This boat deserves a bit more torso rotation when speeding up, wouldn't it? ;-) Anyway, it looks like a perfect match between boat and man....

[@Northseakayak]

Yes, so true but all my attention was going to viewing points, camera setup and so on. It was way better during the last PSK Time trail!😉 Cheers! 👍👌

[@romakayak]

Very similar to my XP18

[@TheDcrocks1]

Dimitry, you where getting very close to that barge, looked like the water was getting you closer and closer. How'd you get out of it?

[@Northseakayak]

Hi! I just let the barge go, it was a bit faster. I wasn't pulled towards it, I paddled there myself. Cheers, Dimitri 👍👌😊

[@beavermeulen2037]

Prachtig !

[@Northseakayak]

Dankjewel Bea!👍😊👌

[@jimwortham8634]

Thanks so much for video I'd love to Pablo you are out of my league LOL

[@Northseakayak]

Cheers Jim, glad you enjoyed it! :-)

[@rolandvigh43]

Hey ,what type strobe light do you have on your shoulder ?

[@Northseakayak]

Hello Roland, it's a diving light with a strobe on the back and a normal light on the front. There's no brand on it, we bought it in a diving shop years ago.😊👌

[@bastogne315]

How did your hat stay on dude in roll?

[@Northseakayak]

Hahahaa! Great! You're not the first that asks (previous videos). It's simple, but don't tell anyone; it's a real P&H cap!!😎😂🤣 Just a smooth roll, that's all. Cheers, Dimitri 👍👌

[@khalifiation]

R u done yet?

[@Northseakayak]

Oooh no! Certainly not done yet!! 😂🤪👌

[@markjgaletti57]

I'm planning a paddle from Wales Alaska too Kodiak Island want to join me

[@Northseakayak]

Best of luck with your journey, thanks for asking me but it's to far away for us. Have fun and be safe! Cheers!😎👌😊

[@joethi4981]

Get rid of the euro blade and the rudder.

[@yru435]
