River Tips in the Eddyline Sky 10

Eddyline Sky 10 is the perfect 32 lb kayak for this kind of adventure. Enough performance to play in the lazy features but also comfortable enough to sit in all day and even throw your legs in the water.
In this video, we introduce you to some of the River dynamics going on with this lazy river and how you can practice some simple techniques that you can later or bring to more advanced water.

I have really enjoyed my Eddyline Sky 10 and mostly have been on lakes. This was great for me to watch and see some of the skills you shared. Thanks so much! As a 72 year old woman, I still want to go down the rivers.

Glad you found this helpful and way to go out there! 😃🛶

I have a sky 10 just like that and love it! I mainly do smaller lakes, but may try one of the rivers too. Thanks for the pointers!

Another bunch of good suggestions I hope to try on the upper Mississippi if the flood waters ever go down

Thanks Ethan for showing us these lessons, of course you could do all that with many of the other Eddyline models. But it’s amazing to see how good the Sky 10 is for this maneuvering. Maybe I could order one in Teal, I don’t have a kayak in that color yet. Considering how well behaved the Eddylines are in flat water, it’s not surprising to see their capabilities in moving water as well.

Love it!

Sometimes I wish I'd picked up used Eddyline four years ago. Seems a very simple kayak.

Great 10 footer. But, I get around a lot of rocks and gravel. I'd probably cry if I hurt the hull.

[@HappyPaddlin]

They are pretty tough and easy to fill gouges and repair.

Hello love the video. I'm 6ft 160 lb do you think Im too big for the sky 10? Can you tell me how tall you are ? Thank you.

[@HappyPaddlin]

I’m 6’ 168. You’ll be perfect in a sky 10!

[@hunterricks2968]

Would I be too tall at 6’4 in this boat? Are the pegs set at the longest length for you?

[@HappyPaddlin]

I think not ideal for a lot of reasons. You may fit w feel jammed into bulkhead (past footbraces for sure) but then your weight is likely not ideal. Equinox or Skylark better choice.

@@HappyPaddlin thanks man!
