He was at the top, but not at the bottom. Doesn't look like I am on the seat either. We hit a rock at the bottom that knocked us both...

It's all about displacement, a 100 litre dry bag filled with gear will displace the same amount of water as a 100 litre air bag. Unless...

The size question is another one.... given that I don't currently run ww above Class II, is it worth getting the bigger bags? I don't...
