Re: Wet West Paddlefest 2010 - Scotland
Anyone else considering this? My poor car is sick at the minute :cry: and I so I'm hoping for a lift if anyone is going over? Payment in the form of coffee and muesli bars. How can you resist! This is a cheap trip if you camp and byo food. The two dam release rivers are The Garry (III) - a fun play ...

Re: Irish boatercross series.
This all sounds very positive and there are some great ideas coming out. Any movement on the organisation at all yet? An individual timed race down the top section of the Boluisce would be fun.

If slalom was always like this it would be so much more fun! They are still hitting the gates too. Crazy skills.

Re: Poaching
I have spoken to locals in Spiddal before about this, they blamed Eastern European's and I would agree. I know two fisheries officers and according to them it is still a huge problem throughout the country on both rivers and lakes. In the north western region the vast majority of poaching is on the ...

Re: Kerry Water levels
Jim you should have come to Kerry with myself and dave. It was big and there was even some boat chasing. I know how much you like a good boat chase. It's all gone now though.

French Alps Levels
Levels are perfect at the minute in the French Alps. The late season snow melt and the evening thunderstorms should keep levels up for the next week at least.

Re: Sweet Strutters, are they solid?
I have never been a big fan of the strutter. I think it is overpriced for what it is and there are several other companies making similar quality products for less. I have worn a rocker for a few years and found it really good. It cracked after a hard impact last year and I replaced it with the shre...

Re: Unusual Safety Kit
