Seedy Paddler is probably refering to the Eskimo Topolino Duo, check out Desperate Measures website and see it in all its bright orange glory.

Great fun paddling big water when your in the back, I dont think I would like to negotiate a slalom course backwards in it though. :laugh:

if you dont think that they are safe then fine thats your opinion Whether it is safe or not is debateable, I have spoken to Allcord who are the UK distributor for C.A.M.P products, and they have told me that it has not been tested for water sports, which is very expensive to do so. This is why the ...

Should it be allowed to continue? Absolutely not! Judging from the fiasco on Sunday it should be scrapped, as you say unsporting behaviour crept in. The young girl who believed she had won promotion, was robbed of it, by a decision to allow a very dubious rerun to another contender after being alle...

If previous years that I have attended are anything to go by, apart from last year because myself and family were sunning our selves in Kefalonia! we have been very lucky with the weather at the interclubs.

I think the timing team coped very well under the circumstances, it was a weekend of learning, we hopefully will see a difference this coming weekend. The only real issue that was commented on several times was not being able to see single run times, but I believe this is in hand. I have yet to go ...

Thanks for that Geebs, I'm sure my club mates will feel the effort was worth it.

I'm just sorry we were the guinea pigs for a new timing system, but the timing team were superb and coped very well.

A big thank you to every one who helped the event run as smoothly as it did.

chauffeur, I agree with you, I have three kids paddling, you have not taken into account training 2-3 time a week at HPP the travelling costs and water fees, the ordinary joe could not afford our sport, I reckon on around £150.00 a week. And yes Anne it does keep the kids off the streets, but sport...

Hi, anyone catch radio 2 this afternoon, apparently us canoeists are rude to anglers and dont pay for our river useage.

Hijacked Dave? possibly, apologies Pingu.

I however agree with you Dave, rules are rules, and should be adhered to, hopefully at future events the person or persons on finish will enforce them.
