Super fun having you come by Xyla!

@andrewedgecombe 2 роки тому

There was a strong Viking longship vibe to Xyla’s boat. Leaves you to wonder, would they have been such successful invaders if they had all been rocking bright yellow duck heads and butts? 🤷‍♀️

@ferdievanschalkwyk1669 2 роки тому

It's a Viking Duckboat!

@shadowsandfire 2 роки тому

Or is Xyla secretly a Viking?

@NarwhalLabs 2 роки тому

Agreed! We discussed that several times, even contemplated a Viking funeral for it at the end, but decided against it. Probably for the best.

@mgcamp85 2 роки тому

Very fun idea for a series. Can’t think of anyone better to set the benchmark than Xyla. As always she makes something that is creative and also works.

@TotalBoat 2 роки тому

Such a fun challenge and it's Totally a Boat! @xylafoxlin you rocked it! 🦆🛶

@NarwhalLabs 2 роки тому

Thanks! We had a ton of fun making it.

@mckenziekeith7434 2 роки тому

Definitely picked the right person for this challenge. She actually seems more stressed on her own builds. Also, I could have never paddled that thing that straight. She actually knows how to paddle.

@BayAreaBerk 3 місяці тому

Yer Uncle Taz reporting in from two years in the future: Great boat based on Improv. Some notes: needs a stability element like a keel or rudder to help it keep straight. That said, I was pleasantly surprised it wasn't to nose heavy and thought it might have needed a void creating balloon during the filling of the head. Still- Well done.

@brandonfuller5177 2 роки тому

Great video! Xyla is a great builder and creative user of “Botal Tote” products. I’m inspired by her to try new projects and new ways of doing projects. I would really like the see Jason, From the Bourbon Moth channel take the Scrap Boat Challenge at some point int he future. He seems a good follow-on to Xyla for the series.

@TuxBoli Рік тому

@Lizlodude Рік тому

"Can I take apart the pallet?" this is why we love Xyla 9:20 What on earth is that tool? It's like an anti-nail gun. I want one. Also Xyla: I dunno let's fill the duck head with foam XD

@brotusclips 2 роки тому

I love the *point* of this challenge and the advertisement messaging from Botal Toat that anything can become the frame for a flotation device with one or two supplements from their stores and a lot of intelligent creativity - which Xyla oozes daily.

@jmg999 7 місяців тому

This ended up being a really clever and cute design.

@scopsowl123 2 роки тому

Bouncy off the docky thing, classic xyla

@Deadfeat 2 роки тому

Well done Xyla,. One thing that would have knocked lots of time off the race would have been a center beam rudder. You spent a ton of time going left and right when paddling

@xxxdiresaintxxx 2 роки тому

Which came first, Carbon fiber dress or paddle? Oh, and congratulations on being the fastest ever!

@ChrischenL 2 роки тому

I think the Carbon Fiber dress was later than the boat because Xyla sad in this video, that she never used flotation foam before but worked with it (again) for her figure dummy.

@TotalBoat 2 роки тому

@@ChrischenL Exactly. First the boat and paddle - then the carbon ball gown!

@sapphire7195 2 роки тому

Of course, no duck-boat would be complete without duct tape! Well done Xyla 👍 I'm really curious now how she would've fared had she spun 'barrels' on her first spin?? 😀

@NarwhalLabs 2 роки тому

We were hoping for bubble wrap! Barrels would have been a lot of fun too!

@JJFliesAndMakes 2 роки тому

Scrap they say. What a useful pile of nice stuff. When I build shit with my brother, when we were a kids, it was made from palette wood only and lots of asphalt melted by fire in old pot. Ship was around slightly more than 1 meter long and around half meter wide, but it weights more than both of us together. It barely floats, but it was able to carry both two kids. What a times with burned skin and splinters.

When I first heard Letterkenny's Wayne call Dary "11-ply, bud" I assumed he meant cardboard or perhaps plywood which seemed like a nice compliment. Only much later I learned he meant TP, as in super-soft. 🐰

Great... now I absolutely MUST go buy one of those nail removers... never knew they existed, so thanks? Ha! And how could the duck NOT become the primary theme???? It was fate (plus the spirit of the duck made it go faster!)

so many buckets could've easily sliced one in half to attach to pole and then not have resistance of pushing paddle down into water ... on the other webbed foot though hers would float if say clumsily dropped 🤔 good duckin though 💜

~1/4 of a bucket-side would make a half-decent paddle blade, if you could attach it to the pole without it cracking.

@modelnutty6503 Рік тому

this was funny, no real form for the foam made for extra drag rough bottom it seems. ending I'm thinking "dang, no one taught her a J stroke" for paddling straight from one side of the craft.. is pulling yourself forward but end of stroke paddle turned 90 degrees to push outward 8-12" (as needed) to rudder+correct, would have been shorter lap time. OK Xyla did engineering school not canoeing school....
