I always like your videos. You have a high degree of details and a lot of perspective when comparing with other products.

[@JonasAlexanderson]

Thank you for the nice words!

[@Fishaholicboy]

The Gram paddles look great though I haven’t tried it. Also, strange that Facebook deleted your video.. does it have music?

[@JonasAlexanderson]

Yes, but I have license for the music and it was ok with KZbin.

[@davidwebster5235]

It’s because of the keywords. Suppose you called it ‘getting a spanking in the rough’. 😊

[@joethi4981]

Can I ask what you think of the Valley Etain. Is it a barge in your experience or not? Would you get bored with it? Many thanks.

[@JonasAlexanderson]

Hi, well a somewhat hard question to answer as it got two different answers. The PE Etain is a barge! If you are going to use it for mostly day trips it will be very boring on the other hand it’s an ok expedition kayak. The fibre glass version is better as it got a bit of rocker and is lighter. But if you are looking for a somewhat bigger kayak that is nice to paddle in most conditions, the Nordkapp is a much better option. If you don’t have too much gear or don’t do multi day expeditions I can highly recommend the Anas Acuta.
