In my opinion a creeker will be an absolute bore on a flatish water trip. At least with a playboat or a river/play boat you can have some fun along the way with tail squirts on little eddy lines :P

I think that is a good idea that there should be a set of equipment that everyone in the group carrys on them/in their boat, and then there should be another set; drain bungs, first aid, clothes that should be distributed. Surely its a good idea, but it varies between rivers and the group your padd...

Thanks all. I think that is a good idea that there should be a set of equipment that everyone in the group carrys on them/in their boat, and then there should be another set; drain bungs, first aid, clothes that should be distributed.

I think the idea of 'packing' every time is a good idea...

I used the heated knife and found that worked fine. Mine had been cut by the previous owner who was bigger than me; meaning I have miles of the stuff, but I just tuck it away ;) The Palm BA's have about a foot if not more of extra harness webbing, and is important that it is cut down to the right s...

Hi again, All whitewater paddlers tend to carry all the usual safety gear such as; throwlines, knives, sligngs, krabs, sling tape etc, but how important is it that we carry things like duck tape (variable usability in wet) and wine corks (drain bungs)? I remember the time on the lower T that one of ...

Wats the difference I have the 3g now but dont know wether to upgrade or not? George 3GS is apparently faster, has a slightly better camera with video recording, has voice controls and a compass, thats about it :) Pretty much hit the nail on the head, I only upgraded because I really like the iPHon...

Do you mean innovative?

Sorry I had a Del Boy moment using the wrong word!

Yes - INNOVATIVE!

I do love the look of those suits!

If I were you, I'd consider the Peak Creek Suit. Intuitive zip system and their cags seem good.

Thanks for the feedback please keep it coming. Sounds like some batches are worse than others, yeh I also know two people with the cags and one of their neck seals broke too. though im more concerned about delam and leaking than latex as realy a latex seal is a latex seal what ever suit its on sure...

Less the 10%/15% most people can get if theyre BCU/In a club = near enough £50.

Note the 15% sale there at the moment.

I wouldnt tamper with a brand new LL Biscuit by drilling a flaming big hole in it. There must be a reason why the likes of LL, Jackson and most lately, Pyranha arent using drain bungs. Im not au fait with the pros/cons, but its just not something I would attempt on a high value boat, also, it would ...

I think its worth noting that the wanderer is way more comfy than both the WRSI and SR standard helmets, mine fits like a glove and everyone who has tried it on agrees. I think the EPP type lining is better than in the WRSI helmets because after taking a knock in a borrrowed WRSI helmet it felt ver...

How much would you be willing to let the boat go for outside of the auction.

Could poss be interested.

Joe.

Agree with Ricks freestyle mind!!!! They offer little more than WRSI does, and for what...3x the price. Just buy a rocker, cos when winter comes and you buy the ear pads, its only £20 more, if that , poss less! And buckets more protection.... and also...whats that little peak about, looks like it sh...

mistake - yes. looks aweful I happen to think these helmets are up there as one of the best helmets on the market! As are all the Sweet Helmets. It ticks every box for a modern whitewater helmet and looks as good as the Rocker etc!!! It's only time before you start to see flocks of weekend warrior'...

Hi there. I bought a M/L size legend one (08 spec i believe) which is 56cm and upwards. I have a 54/55 cm head so was unsure if it was going to be too loose. Infact, I found tightening up the backband made a huge difference and also inserting the provided pads, I now have a really snug fit with the ...

Sweet: - Helmets rock and I wanted a new sticker to cover the screw hole and I was send one immediately from Norway!

Brighton Canoes: - Always helpful, Thanks.

Wetsuit Outlet: - Cheap gear, fast delivery.

Joe

Think they might do some cheap thermals.......
Dont think your exactly gonna stumble upon a set of Carbon cranks :L

Hey, I have a 08 Jackson Allstar for sale in green. It is worth £600 second hand, but I am trying to sell it to raise funds, and therefore was offering it for £550, I see that you do not want to spend this much so let me know how much you are willing to pay. Let me know and I can send you some pict...

Lots of rain forecast - hopefully will be up still at the weekend:

Anyone know whats up with the Nookie DartCam?
