My New Bucket List by Hilde Schweitzer | Dec 4, 2018 | Antix, Internationalisation, River Running, United States, Whitewater, WW DisciplinesOK, let’s face it. I am never going to do that one Class 5 river that’s been on my bucket list since I started kayaking. Probably never going to get that massive clean air loop or do some trick that most people can’t pronounce, not going to go on any...

“In-betweener” Boats by teamjk | Jun 30, 2018 | Antix, MixMaster, rivers, Video, Whitewater I am personally new to the whole “in-betweener” kayaks myself. Before I got an Antix, it was either playboat or creekboat. Id tried few here and there, but its never the same as actually having one to paddle regularly. To be honest I thought they...
