Canoe air bags are a useful addition to how we outfit canoes.
Often seen as being most useful in white water, here we explore their use in open flat water environments.
With different sizes and styles of air bag available I thought it would be useful to compare some and their effects on a similar style of boat.
The three prospector style boats are similar in style and weight, all being the tougher heavier types of three layer plastics for rocky rivers and trips, rather than lightweight flat water composite flat water boats.
There was no pre-practice with any boat re entry, and each boat film segment was simply shot off the cuff and had a genuine initial reaction. In short everything was improvised.
I hope this helps to guide and inform peoples choices for their floatation needs.
Cheers Adam
