unsponsored Liquid Logic Stomper Review
unsponsored (Monday 7th) ** - I have owned the Stomper 90 for a fair few months and now is the time for an initial review. Having been in small play boats for so long meant that getting into the stomper felt like I had bought the Ark Royal and not a kayak. That said, on the water it does not have the bad characteristics ...

Team LiquidLogic (Wednesday 9th) ** - Read the English text below! Direkt zum Video.Viamala Schlucht Die Viamala Schlucht ist eine der beeindruckendsten Schluchten in Graubünden. Ein Steg führt Touristen zu der schmalsten Stelle der Klamm. Mit den Kajaks ist es leider Verboten, dort einzubooten.

Exploring Elements The Huge Creek Boat Review
Exploring Elements (Friday 4th) ** - There are a lot of boats on the market today that fit into the "creekboat" category. My aim with this review is to give you a a good overview of the market today and a personal experience comparison that is as unbiased a review as you can get in the paddle sports market. I currently have no direct ties to any boat manufacturer or retailer and make no money from writing this review. The review is written from my experience, body type and paddling style. I have tried to note where a boat might perform better under different circumstances.
Nick Bennett Cheat River Festival - What a Weekend!
Nick Bennett (Wednesday 9th) ** - Joe - having a cracking time! Cheat Fest has been firmly fixed on my calendar for some time now and as it has been a while since I have done any proper boating I was a little bit excited on Thursday.

Palm Blogs Flow Hunters Project New Zealand
Palm Blogs (Wednesday 9th) * - Well it certainly has been an epic summer down here in NZ. After lots of working behind the scenes with Red Bull and Tourism NZ I was able to finally put into action a trip I had been dreaming about for a long time. For the past 10 years I have been fortunate enough to follow my passion for kayaking around the world exploring some of the best whitewater this planet has to offer. I thought it was finally time to bring some of the amazing friends I have made through the sport down to my home turf and explore the very best that NZ has to offer. So in February Rush Sturges, Rafa Ortiz and camera man Matt Baker flew down to NZ to join myself and fellow kiwi paddler Jared Meehan and embark on an epic adventure.

New River Academy Shouldering It | Yoga for Kayaking: Shoulders
New River Academy (Sunday 6th) * - The mark of a kayaker, more than the beat up hands or a twice broken nose, or even a vocabulary diminished to the adjectives of "brown" and "stout", would have to be the shoulders. The broad, muscular, possibly even overdeveloped, yet with a history of subluxation or dislocation, shoulders.
