NOT A GOOD IDEA!!!! I have seen a few people mount the oil cooler there, in this position, ITS A VERY BAD IDEA, people, do NOT copy this. First google head hight and any pump!!! what you have done is, you have raised the head hight of the oil, way too high, you should keep the oil cooler on the same level as the mid-point off the engine (give or take a few inches) The oil pump now need to lift the oil way up much higher than ever before, too the very top of that oil cooler, and hopefully at least I hope you have worked out how to bleed the now newly created air pocket. its not a good idea,

Which Apple Watch is this?

How did you do this angle. And what mount did you use. 😢 There's no video in youtube doin what you did.

I learned digging your paddle into white oxygenated water doesn't get you far, plant the paddle into the green/blue/brown water for positive energy.

Just a question because of a coment you made: You said on the GL trip you'd been too busy to get practiced up before you went. What kind of full time job do you have ?

I just made a move to CT 2 years ago, as hard as it was for me to pick up my NJ life and relocate Ive found some great places here in this state. Also recently rekindled my love of photography and considering another book myself. Kayaking has been the one thing that has held it all together for me. Cheers!

great explanation! im going through such period, from recreational kayak to whisky 16 rocker

Every time I see video of someone saying use your core, it still looks like >70% of the motion (just to make up a number) is still coming from the arms, and the core seems to barely move at all. This video, too. There’s a ton of arm motion and like 10 degrees of torso twist on the “use your core” shot. I feel like I’m misunderstanding something, because “most of the motion comes from your core, seems to me to mean most of the pull backwards on the paddle should come from twisting. But even if I’m wrong (which I very probably am), no one ever explains it any further than “use your core”. That’s a vague statement, and I can’t be the only confused paddler.

I purchased one of these for the top of my FJ cruiser. It is so tall it is almost impossible for me to get the kayak up there by myself. I am doing a trial run without the kayaks just to test the roof, but I am getting a lot of whistling And wind sound. Was this your experience as well?

Just received mine. Very impressed with the quality and ease of use.

Wow I didn’t know that. Thanks

This doesn't look like it will work with most fixed ridgeline hammocks like Haven, Hennessey, or possibly Amok. (There are more like Warbonnet and Dutchware as examples. ) I have tried several stands with the several hammock models I have purchased since 2020. I sleep in a hammock every night in my room and a good stand for these types of hammocks has proven to be a challenge to find. (I have a Kammock Swiftlet, Tensa 4 and now a Yobogear Hive.) Any insights on using this stand with the hammlcks mentioned above?

Greenland paddles have changed my perspective on kayaking. I absolutely recommend starting to train with one.

Hi Luke. Do you know if i could attach to rhinorack? Would i need roofrack adaptors ? Thnx

How are you securing your one piece Greenland paddle if you are using your euro paddle.

i am only asking this because i want to understand size to hammock ratio - please no offense. how tall are you? you look around 5'8 maybe 150lbs?

I believe the illustration shown is a cross bow rudder. Btw; love your content Cheers

I’m 64 and started kayaking in early 70’s. I discovered the Greenland paddle 3 years ago. My advice ! Just buy the best Greenland paddle you can afford. You will paddle further with much less fatigue and will have far more control and better use of your Yak. I use Gearlab carbon fiber and FREAKING love it. With my P&H Volan 160 in the light weight 42 lb carbon Kevlar this paddle makes everything effortless and highly efficient !

I always use stabilisation and usually have my camera mounted onto my kayak . why do you suggest not having stabilisation on when the camera is mounted to the kayak ? i didn't quite understand why ?

At least lay on it so we know it’s at least comfortable.

Hmh i might need to look into this for my FJ. Went from subaru to FJ but i have heavy kayaks.

GR8 TIPS TO CORRECT/BETTER PERFORMANCE FOR NEOPHYTES.

Best safety is a well designed boat and you won’t need a rutted or skeg

I've been surfing a sit-on with thigh braces for the last 19 years on the West Coast of the South Island on New Zealand. I love powering into a wave thats just about to break, using my hips to transfer my weight backwards, and can sometimes get quite high in the air. The first time I did it, I was surfing a backwash out, and went over several waves getting higher air each time. The last one must have thrown me 2 metres or more in the air. I didn't land it, and didn't have a leash, as I hadn't even paddled out to the big breakers before. I learnt quickly that day. I've paddled through the cave under the famous Punakaiki blowhole too, That was pretty cool, as I've also been a keen caver for many decades.

Why does everybody say this? "Oh, you won't be able to see it, you won't be able to see it..." Yeah, you can; guys, JUST CROSS YOUR EYES SLIGHTLY. Your brain will do the rest to guide your eyes in to overlap the view; it's what happens whenever you open your eyes. You just need to trick your brain into crossing the images about half the distance to the screen, and then you'll see it. Trust me.

Luke; good points, thanks for putting this presentation together. What do you like as a sit in fishing kayak? Cheers

One issue I've found is, paddlers are reluctant to turn them their VHF radios on. They say they want to save the battery for emergencies. The problem with that is nobody is monitoring the frequency. For example, if a paddler gets separated from the group and has an emergency they won't be able to contact other paddlers if the other paddlers have their radios off.

Does the Hullavator come with the hardware to mount to the round Jeep cross bars?

Does the Thule Hullavator come with the hardware to install it to the round rack tubes of the Jeep roof rack?

Great video very helpful as my Mrs and I are doing a engine swap ourselves this weekend 👍

Wouldn't the coolant only flow through that fitting when the front heater is on?

Nice vid. I would avoid turtle diving in bigger conditions. It can work but it's better to work on timing, moving in the impact zone, and accerating. I always vote power and speed into bigger waves with timing. Also another tip is slight angle, reach deep down into the green water as you reach over along with leaning hard forwards. Often times folks sit in a neutral position weighting the stern which sends them into a back surf as the water hits the foam of the pfd. This is why surf kayaks usually wear wetsuits only so they can break through the surf like a surf boarder.

The best solution is to have boath a deck compass and a hand compass.

Hey, thanks for the idea. I switched my kayak carrying setup to a Yaris and carrying one-piece paddles is an annoyance. I use Yakima Showdown, but same applies.

I had a 78 Westfalia in my whitewater kayaking days. Broke my heart when I had to say goodbye to it. Just got a 86 and looking forward to continuing the adventures into retirement. Just felt I had to say hi to a fellow Kayaker with a Westy.

Can you still do this if you do not have a skirt ? Or will too much water get in the kayak ? I actually have a pakboat foldable, so...wondering if it would be too much.

I have several kayaks of different types. For doing chores and poking into coves and inlets around our cabin I really enjoy the 9' long, 40 pound recreational kayak that I got from a big box store for $200. I often paddle it using an ultralight carbon paddle that cost double what the kayak did. One thing I learned about my good paddles is not to let kayaking partners try using them until we are close to the end of our paddle. The reason is because they aren't going to want to give it back and I'll end up feeling like I'm paddling with a garden shovel.

Nice video, I just recently made 2 Greenland paddles (which I'll need to learn how to use) and I purchased the Quick Fist rubber mounts hoping they will work. I was planning on doing exactly what you did in your video, but then I saw your video and was like "Wow, someone did exactly what I was thinking of doing" so this is perfect. I've got room on my Hullavator system to do the same and mounted these rubber quick-fist to them. If the paddles won't work due to being past the loom then I'll be switching to straps just as you have done. I am debating on maybe building a rack for my paddles with 4" sewer pipe and storing them inside. Less of a chance they can be stolen and protects them from bugs being splattered on them. Just don't know if I want an 8ft 4" pipe always attached to my truck roof racks. I usually remove the Hullavator when I'm not Kayaking. Good job and thanks for the visual of what mine will be like.

Hi Luke. I really enjoyed this video. Very illustrative. It means so much more to me after my week of working on my surfing skills with you, Dale and the other instructors and students.

Are you recording audio while driving a car? But video good anyway

You didn’t show you folding it up could it easily be done with one hand? I only have one working hand is why I ask

Can you put two of these systems on the roof (one on driver side and one on passenger side) of a Toyota FJ Cruiser?

What is the app called? Can’t find

My wife talked me into renting some sit on top kayaks with her for 1 hour. I was really excited about it... for about the first half hour. After that, the seat was paralyzing me to the point that I couldn't make it the full hour. The following weekend she found a place that rented real kayaks, sea kayaks. Long, narrow sit inside... kayaks. Being too long for my little truck, they brought them to the lake for us. They gave us some life jackets and some quick pointers and off we went. My wife's kayak was a composite and mine was a plastic kayak. It was long and slim and looked fast sitting still and I struggled to get in or out of it. I battled it the entire time only to learn later that it's paddler size limit was well below my size. We had them 4 hours and my wife was constantly waiting up for me. I learned composite and plastic are not alike. I talked with the rental place and on our 3rd time out, I got a high end composite sea kayak. It was a work of art with a skeg, which I loved. I quickly discovered, after being only about 100 feet from the shore, that 1, this boat was so tippy that I was going to have a real ab workout trying to keep it upright and 2, I was probably going to be spending a lot of time in the water that day. We had our 2 kayaks for the full day. After about an hour in it I was really getting the hang of it and by about the 3rd hour, I didn't think I could be tipped over. I ended up re-renting that one many times that summer. Where we live, in North Idaho, there are some really big lakes, one lake the navy test submarines in. We were on that one, lake Pend Oreilla that day, when a storm came in. The waves were large white caps and we were still aways from our destination. At first I was a little concerned but that kayak was more than up for the challenge. My fear quickly changed to delight and I was having a blast on those big waves. I was happy to have a boat that was well beyond my skill level. I felt it brought my skill level up very quickly. Since these had dry storage in both the front and back, we were able to pack lunches and bring things with us, which was nice. I feel that sea kayaks can be a real addiction that can be hard to shake.

They are good but WAY too expensive.

I love this thanks! I bought a drone that i cant try before my vacation because theres a lot of drone paperwork in germany. I wanted to make videos while kayaking but was worried about the return to home point function. Would be really frustrating to watch my 1k dollar drone take a dive while i paddle after it. I will deffinetely change the controller to home point. Very great informative video!

But looking through the viewer it's only showing that effect on 180 not 360 right?

genius way of explaining it

Man, this video has such a good vibe. I just got the x3 as well and had a lot of fun editing. The versatility of the x3 is so nice.
