1000 MILES, UNDERWATER
Filmed & Edited on an iPhone 5s compilation of clips from a daily 'Good Morning' video diary, uncovering various things that the journey taught me during a 1000 mile journey from Oslo to Helsinki by Hobie Kayak in Summer 2014.

The 10 O Clock news on MTV3 is one of the most widely watched shows in Finland. At the end of some episodes Mika Tommola presents an uplifting section, and on Thursday 25th September he visited Dave's in Matilda, Finland, to ensure he was recognised for the rest of his journey by Hobie Kayak between Oslo and Helsinki.
TRANSPORT: HOBIE MIRAGE
Hobie have developed the Mirage Drive, a propulsion system similar to the way penguins swim. Enabling leg muscles to drive the kayak forwards efficiently and quickly. I'll be using a Mirage Adventure (slightly longer than the kayak pictured)
