I entered last year, got knocked out straight away, but really enjoyed reading the feedback and the seeing the continuous high calibre of white water photography from the other contestants. I am hoping to enter again this year and think there may be a few places. It costs $5 now which given the priz...

There is no where near the variety that there usua...

Thanks for the suggestions and for the kind people that pm'd me. I ended up driving to the dart empty handed and placing my fate in the good humanity of kayakers ( assuming I would end up being shuttle driver!). Luckily I met a lovely chap called Matt, who despite having never met me, lent me his bo...

Back in the UK for a quick family visit. Headig down to the dart right now and hoping to demo / borrow a boat down there . Any chance a friendly ukrgber could help me out ? Can pay in beer endless gratitude or cold hard cash . I have tried calling AS water sports but no answer If you come to califor...

Presumably It's so he can play polo. :) #SW@G.... My school kids keep saying this term what the hell does it actually mean? OK it turns out I may have slightly overreacted *shock horror*. Rush has supposedly secured a video/athlete partnership ( aka he got a free t-shirt). That is more like the pro...

A young American friend of mine in a similar situation managed to do something very similar last year out in Pucon. If I was you I would buy a ticket which was cheap to change and head out there with a good sense of adventure and willingness to try your hand at anything. If it works, perfect you get...

Incase there was any doubt that kayaking was a white man's sport Rush Sturges went and joined team Ralph Lauren. Seriously.


I think I am going to quit kayaking and take up basketball.

What do you think are the ' best' extreme creek races out there at the moment? I recently took part in the Cherry Creek' Paddle as Fast as You Can' event. It definitely was one of the more intimidating events I have enjoyed. Here is a quick video - the white water footage starts just over half way i...

I think that is challenging to become a ' big deal' in kayaking and therefore in some way it is a big deal.

I took my boat up over New Year hoping to get in a day or two of paddling. Ended up stayed up there for 3 weeks and was never short of stuff to do.

Get used to paddling class V with poggies on.

Fun times.

The Payette River Games are well on their way in Cascade, Idaho. Tomorrow ( Sunday 22nd June) finals will be live streamed at http://www.payetterivergames.com. There is a great mix of events including freestyle, boater X, 8 ball, SUP boater cross, SUP sprint, River surfing, Volley Ball, Axe Throwing...

I agree with you to a certain extent but I think that some people have a skewed vision of paddling in California. I love being right :) As the Californian Spring Run off draws to a close I can't help but notice that a lot of amazingkayaking was to had in this ' terrible drought year' that people ke...

Seems like drone footage is all the craze. Super expensive toy but clearly a lot of fun. I can't afford a Go Pro so doubt I will be buying one of these anytime soon. If only Santa really existed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IdyILP2C888 Interestingly, this was filmed on on a Sunday afternoon, onl...

I really like that photo !

There are a few Brits competing at this event, including Freestyle World Champ Claire O'hara who continues to represent the high standard of paddlers produced by Leeds ( shame she went to the Met though) ;) Dagger are doing a series of videos so paddlers can follow the event. Warning: Its pretty Ame...

This video has some of my favorite things in it, smooth lines, the Little White Salmon, an RPM kayak and reggae tunes. All set in a beautiful snowy wonderland. Kyle Hull is a super smooth paddler and makes the whole thing look effortless. Seriously is there anything the RPM can't do? Enjoy https://v...

California Canoe and Kayak have a wide variety of gear available - Sacramento, Oakland and Coloma ( right by the South Fork of the American). I will be working for CCK this summer as a kayak coach and they also should be able to arrange some guided trips if you are interested ( speak to Matt Parker)...

Try Nomad slalom kayaks in Llangollen . They fixed my AT 2 flexi 3 years ago and it is still going ! I think that one of the guys that did the fibre glass work may have now left but I'm sure someone here will know where he went !

http://www.kayakphoto.com/darinmcquoid/photocomp20144.html First round of entrants is in. It views a lot better on a laptop than mobile. Hover over the pics to see the two different entrants in each bracket. Some pretty good pics in there. If you like kayaking and / or photography why not take the t...

Hi Sara, I'm thinking of heading out to CA summer next year. What months are usually best for creeking in CA - May -August? Can you recommend any books/websites for whitewater kayaking in CA? Thanks, Casha Casha .. I would recommend getting out as early as you can in the summer. Early May should be...

In the past I have always used snow card or BMC, however neither will cover me for my current requirements.

Any suggestions? I need someone who will cover me for trips over 90 days, including america, including Class V white water.

Help?! Please.

You can get last minute stand by flights to Livingstone from Lusaka. I managed to blag my boat on one of these. That was nicer than taking hte bus for sure.

Bus is fine though. Much better than some I have been on, just a long trip.
Sara

Any idea if you can still get these anywhere anymore?

You missed the Cal Salmon race Sara, thats normally in May. Cal Salmon race does sound great. Definitely hoping to make it up this season. I do totally get your point about the multiple factors that are contributing to our poor water levels this season. I am not going to pretend that I am not disap...

Talking of which there are a bunch of pretty awesome creek races that are held in Cali every year. Whilst not as well publized a some creek events around the world these are great rivers to race on with a great field of competitors. If I was planning a trip out here I may try coincide with one of th...
