Espen creates a path of less resistance

Espen creates a path of less friction for the kayak using a collection of wooden poles and planks, which he lays out from the top of the bank in the garden, giving himself a gravity assist from the start.

He also ties a rope to a tree and lays that out along the path so that, when the kayak stops sliding under gravity, he can pull it still further, across the lawn.

He manages to travel a total distance of 22m.
