I actually test drove the Martikan the other week, and I can see where stu is coming from. the boat does seem slow on the flat and in a straight line (im not sure whether that has anything to do with the tromendous amount of rocker the boat has, I tried Dans boat, and watched dan paddle too, I didn...

prize money dont make a difference, I think very few people are gonna spend £1000 on a boat to win a couple of quid cash. therfore everyone is gonna compete for fun anyway. Im looking at the possibility of kayaking full time as a career at the moment, the only feasible way is to get sponsorship, wr...

Its not going to happen! having competed for some years I think the best prize I have ever got at a slalom was a cup with Landysul div1 winner on it. however in freestyle I have walked away with £100's in prizemoney. to be honest I dont think it changes the mentality of the competitors, who would w...

I would agree with you but the argument does not stack up, I cant help being big! however I can work on my control skills regardless of how much strength I might have. at the end of the day the course designers should make courses that everybody can get round without grounding in my opinion. I mean...

Hey, I competed at a event last year on bala mill falls. It was by far the worst result for me, and I reckon I know why! The course designers had put a upstream gate quite far into a eddy where the water depth was probably less tham a foot deep. I struggled on all my runs to make a tight approach t...
