Latte: whisked doubleshot please!

Point 65 have just launched a couple of new kayaks, both of them designed by Nigel Foster

The Doubleshot is a kayak for two, whilst Nigel says that the Whisky 16 is the kayak for me as it’s slightly shorter than a normal sea kayak and designed to be FUN!  I’m really looking forward to trying one out and might have to schedule a trip to Seattle to hasten the experience!

And for those amongst you who have not tried the turning technique that Nigel is demonstrating above, it truly is amazing.  Takes a bit of getting used to though, as every fibre in your body is screaming at you to lean into the corner! 

Maybe he’ll explain how it works some time?
