Xmas/New Year Period

With low water levels, Xmas, New Year period and the winter season really set in, it has been time to take advantage of the conditions.

Although there has been no water in the rivers for white water kayaking, the rivers do lend themselves well to practising some canoe poling, tracking & lining with good friend Baz.

Surfing at Salcombe on the bar was fun and sporty with 7ft waves making for practising surfing my sea boat With some time off coaching I have also had time to climb more and even get out on the bike and do some new routes i have been wanting to do for a while.

Training, climbing & sailing (canoes)

After running a few more coach education programmes for several companies and now with very low water levels and cold conditions,it has meant that I have had time to play. At last I have had time to do some more training, get out climbing and even doing some canoe sailing with friend and paddlesport tutor Baz. Although cold the wind was perfect force 5 and gusting!!!
