Poke The email for rainchasers still doesn't work. Fancy adding the Stratford Upon Avon Playspot at Lucy's Mill Weir? Are you interested in adding levels for Lucy's Mill weir play spot to Rainchasers? Relies on this gauge https://flood-warning-information.service.gov.uk/station/2046 50 cm is low 60-...

This is one of the weirs on the Rea, Not run it for many years but a fun little trip if the water is right!

River Rea, running from Neen Savage.

Is the Liquid Logic 90 a Stomper, if so I'd go for the rpm. The Stomper will be too much of a river runner and won't be much fun in the surf.

Easter 2019 will be fine. Easter 2020 may be a problem. The Etive itself will be unaffected so far. The tributaries will be. Hopefully the planners will see sense!

Findhorn comes up rather quick!

This river is currently subject to an application for a hydro scheme and there is limited time for people to get their views known.

Any idea of a grid reference for this please? I think I know where it is, but just want to check.

Not sure but I think 909771!

A mate lost his paddles yesterday on the Upper Wye, Llangurig to Rhayader section. There is a nasty strainer that claimed them. They have red blades and are marked with his name and telephone number.

Pretty horrible blockage on this section yesterday. There is a large tree on a left hand bend which has accumulated a load of debris, including a length of wire mesh and barbed wire fence, complete with fence posts. The fence is not very visible. The dead sheep it has caught is! This is a real hazar...

Paddled this yesterday at 0.72.

Several tree hazards. At least one river-wide.

Plas y brenin?

ArkguideChase, You have a few options with local paddlers. Paddletastic meet each Thursday between 8 and 10 pm at the excel, just outside the university for some practice and a rough and ready version of kayak polo. Leamington Spa Canoe Club, Mercia Canoe club and Hinckley are all close by too. Enjoy!

Has anyone accessed the Dee at Glyndyfrdwy recently? is payment for parking still expected and if so how do you pay?

Maybe this might help?

Why not use gopro's own, free editing software?

We used this last weekend. it was excellent. More parking at Witches Steps and no up to the waist muddy portage. The path runs from the bottom of End of Civilisation to Witches steps.

My kayak has a broken fin and the surf shops look at me weirdly when I show it to them. When do people get their replacements from please?


Does it need to be identical to the other two?

Before we all get too clever here let's remember three men died on this weir in 2014. They didn't have years of paddling experience to guide them. Let's welcome an initiative that publicises the risk in a way that's meaningful to many people. That's what the coroner suggested, after all. I don't di...

Watersafety thanks for a helpful post on safety but your information leaflet is misleading it says: "Canoeing The Tyne catchment is one of the best venues for canoeing and kayaking in the UK. There is a mixture of flat flowing water (grade 2) and more challenging water (up to grade 4). There are man...

Granted I'm afraid.

The gauges are all online.

Go to the Where's the water website and you can look at virtually live levels (a few hours old). A fair amount of water about at present!

Canoe England promoting a page that suggests the river Dove is not usually open to paddlers!! Probably a good event but a poor message.

Thanks, just thought that was ironic!

Can anyone capture the image from 12 today and post it:

Nice. River at 2.20 please?

Photos would be good but, from memory: Standard - carbon kevlar hull, glass deck Superlight - carbon kevlar hull & deck Xtec - same as superlight but with foam core in the hull Cyrstec (sp?) - like xtec but carbon instead of carbon/kevlar Malcolm? That about right? Thanks but I couldn't tell you fr...
