    Anyone Kayak?

    Thanks. Based on my height and the width of a Swifty, I opted for a 240cm feather paddle.

    Hey BRR - what length of paddle do you use with your Swifty?

    Tip your server.

    That's assuming the same person services your room the next day. Not always the case.

    Tip your server.

    I tip my hairstylist in cash. She loves it. She's the one person I don't tip 20% on - I tip a lot more because she doesn't charge much and she does a great job every time.

    Tip your server.

    I don't, because I don't know who will get it. If I had some control over that, like on a cruise, or was assured it would get into the hands of the people who worked hard and cleaned my room, I wouldn't be hesitant to leave a $10 tip.

    Tip your server.

    My standard tip rate is 20%. If service is poor (more than 10 minutes before we're greeted, drinks are occasionally empty, etc.), that goes down to 10%. If it's really bad (drinks are usually empty, other problems or rudeness), it's 5%. If it's horrible, they get a penny. I still tip the 20%...

    Always tip people in a service position. My opinion. But then again, I'm from Vegas.

    Anyone Kayak?

    That's been an idea of mine for a while - start off at upper Lake Mead (or maybe Willow Beach, which is just downstream from Hoover dam), kayak down to Parker dam. Multi-day trip; easy paddling; would need some shore support to get around Hoover and Davis dams. I've heard the river gets a bit...

    Anyone Kayak?

    What about a single person handling the kayak from the truck to the beach? Or is it a two person job?

    Anyone Kayak?

    Thanks. You and I are about the same size, so your testimony carries real weight. What's the roughest weather / conditions you've used it in?

    Anyone Kayak?

    Thanks! I see it has a capacity of 325; I've heard that the rule of thumb is 2/3rds of capacity should be your weight. So if capacity is 300, you should weigh 200. Has that been your experience? How's it ride? And what's the cargo capacity on it? I'd love to take a 3 or 4 day lake mead...

    Anyone Kayak?

    Just curious if anyone kayaks on this board. I've been looking to pick up a new hobby now that my time is freeing up, and I love the water. Looking to pick someone's brain about training, equipment, and places to go in the SW. Mostly flat water to begging, maybe some whitewater when I progress.

    Star Trek Beyond (ST:XIII)

    I was waiting for Vin Diesel to jump out of the shuttlebay on a motorcycle onto a Romulan ship. God, this trailer has left me depressed. I may not leave the house for 2 days.
