So no specific kayak trip planned this summer as I will be moving to New Zealand at the end of June, for at least a year. So roll on the kayak adventures over there. I will be living 100 metres away from some cool surf!!!!
Since the Crana boatercross I have bought a new playboat, the new star 2010, been to the Grand Canyon for the second winter in a row(even better second time round). I got in a few runs down in Wicklow (although there has been a serious lack of water recently).
I also tried out a surf kayak and a wave ski this weekend. The surfkayak is way better out there than the playboat, smooth, easier to catch waves and faster. The ski is a little more challenging as I’m more used to the boats but the conclusion is : I’m definitely going to buy a ski and hopefully also going to buy a surfkayak.
Of course I have been out playboating at Sluice, Clifden, Cellbridge, Gower and Tarmonbarry… here is a video I put together of some of us who have been freestyling recently…..
So roll on New Zealand which should be packed with surf action and some helicopter rides to put ins!
