Hey, don´t be so confident about not capsizing, pitchpoling happens really fast, if you are doing something else, like arranging a rope or watching the feminin crew of other boats, it will get you... And the more sophisticated the boat, the faster it happens. You don´t need pole and bag though, one of them should be enough. (But it seems like some feedback from other users of poles would be useful, as I said I didn't have a good experience).

Let us know how it goes. Good luck.
