The Teacher River, as our friend called Salza, was also to test the Ultima Eddy and Ultima Tramp packrafts in the last week of August. Three days spent on the river showed that they can handle triple water without any problems. Maybe check out the introduction video.
It could be a fairy tale. But it's not. Fortunately. Two very handsome young men set out in search of lost time in cowboy country with the blind faith that such places still exist. And what was their excitement when, after two days of wandering, they arrived back at their starting point in Petrov near Prague with [...]
Teplá Vltava after rains from Soumarský Bridge. Alone on the river again...
I woke up in the morning, the weather looked great, a pack, a few things and a packraft Ultima eddy SB came on my back. Self-bailing boat, the lightest thing I can go out with. Half an hour later, I'm jumping out at the secret boarding point in Plečovice. Just run down the meadow and you're at the river. In two hours I'm jumping out [...]
The Sunday before Easter Monday traditionally belongs to the swimming of the Mastník stream, into which the locals let the water from the Sedlčany reservoir flow. This year we went with packraft Tramp Eddy and the duo Toronto. A great ride on the sometimes rapids stream. Check out the video and some photos. #staywildebefree
Our friend Míra Oros was on his home river Bílina with packraft Ultima Cargo. It was his first encounter with packraft and he couldn't resist to write a short story... Sunday adventure for fifty crowns Some time ago I got a call from Honza Vlášek (my colleague Milan Jelínek [...]
We tested the Selfbailer Eddy SB in February in unusual conditions. Finland reported the harshest winter in 10 years and great sea conditions between Turku and Alandami. Since ice is our big hobby we went.
Have Moldau for yourself? It's possible! Warm autumn, fast action and for us the most beautiful stretch of the Vltava Zlatá Koruna - Boršov. Two packrafters alone on the Vltava... Unbelievable 17 degrees at the end of October meant fast action. Originally we wanted to go to the Teplá Vltava, but unfortunately it was three centimetres less navigable. The [...]
What's the best thing about packraft? When you wake up and the sun comes out after a few days of rain. You just have to decide in a second and in a moment you are on the Lužnice River. And when it's autumn and you have the river to yourself, it's perfect. This situation happened in October and although there was not much time, [...]
It's 8:00 in the morning. In a sleepy village at the end of the world, with a few houses, a petrol station and two supermarkets, we are waiting for the bus. A few kilometres from the border with Norway, fifteen kilometres from the Arctic Ocean and about 500 kilometres beyond the Arctic Circle. Instead of a bus, a van for some twenty people arrives from a house [...]
