Electrical tape with clear nail varnish over the top works well for paddles

Iv'e got an ir reggie as new £30 +postage

Now those are man size

I've got some acryllic lying around I'll give making a set a go

Looking to try out some hand paddles to make flatwater paddling a bit more interesting but don't want to spend a fortune does anyone know of a cheaper brand

Decathlon wetsuit boots are pretty good and there cheap enough to replace / upgrade after a little while

Im looking for a backrest to retrofit into a ratchet system I don't need any thing fancy
All things considered

Also has anybody got pics of their own setups ?

I'm starting to paddle(support stroke) a high kneel c1 and I'm quickly realising that I need to set it up properly but have no idea how to beyond the fact I need a knee block and a plate for my back foot. Any advice on how to set it up and what to make a knee block from?

Very interested could you courier at my expense ?

Will this be ok on gelcoat ? As I managed to put a few annoying scratches on my k1 deck when I first bought it.

Shame i'd sink it was hoping it was a 6.3.

The 6.3's the only one I wouldn't sink at 96kg so I sholdnt have any troble throwing it around then .

Will I fit in a g-force6.3 at 6'1 34"inseam and size 11.5 feet ?
Thanks in advance.

What size are the flirt and the g-force?

If you google "idiots guide to paddle making" theres a really good thread on song of the paddle under that name.

I worded that wrong I've filled the dents and large scratches I'm just gonna live with the smaller ones I'll only scratch them again on the first portage I do.

The blades on my wings are starting to wear a bit and i want to refinish them. Will t-cut fill in the scratches/dents and polish them or do i need to sand off the clear/gelcoat and re apply it. In addition to this can i just use an aerosol acrylic to re-coat them or should i use something else. All ...

I was thinking of joe caisley here's the site

New website think it was formerly bala graphics however only sell by m squared so only worth it for groups

I'm sure there was an add on here a while ago but can't remember who was advertising them for the life of me. Does anyone know who was selling them or if not who do people use for stickers as I'm after some for my helmet

Can I have pics to jack_eagles@hotmail.com please.

Good point that's the main reason for aiming to have two longer lines in the group where possible however still not ideal and its the reason why a longer/ heavier line is the next item on my shopping list. With the aim of being kept in the boat at all times behind the seat with the lighter personal ...

Haven't handled one but can see the 7.5mm rope turning into cheese wire under tension

At least one person in the group will be carrying a heavier/longer line for gear recovery etc as well as most if not all carrying lighter/ shorter lines for swimmer rescues.

Agree about the strength difference however I'm after a line for nothing other than swimmer rescues and not gear recovery so I'm not overly concerned with rope strength

Also how fussy are people about diameter I'm considering a 15 metre 10mm line or an 18metre 8mm line.?

I'm looking to buy a line for swimmer rescues and want to know is a 10 metre line long enough or do I need a 15 metre line. I'm looking at the palm ten metre rapid or 15 metre bullet. I have also thrown a green slime mini target bag and liked it but have heard the palm bags are easier to re pack esp...
