The world's latest paddling headlines.

News Watch Headlines Kicking Off The Whitewater Grand Prix Dagger Blogs - Being asked to compete in the Whitewater Grand Prix this year was an incredible privilege. I figured out that I had been invited just a few weeks before the event, but I was set on making it happen. 4 Days in Chile Palm Blogs - Less than 24 hours after landing in Chile, I was racing head-to-head on the Rio Nuble as part of Nuble Fest. Not quite how expected to be taking my first strokes in the country. Bucs Wild Water Racing Nick Bennett - For the past "as long as I can remember" Edinburgh University Canoe Club has not had any interest in competitions sending only a token gesture to the previous Wild Water events with little hope of gaining a single BUCS point (the points which are accumulated and used to rank university sports programmes). Soon Decade of Dominance SUP Connect - Jamie Mitchell needs no introduction. Whether he's out charging massive waves, winning the world's biggest SUP races, or jet-setting around the world to explore new oceans, the guy has become a bit of a modern ocean legend. A New Journey Begins Jackson Kayak - What do you get when you combine a new Jackson Kayak Journey, new Werner Performance Core paddles, and Sapporo Ichiban Hot & Spicy Chicken ramen noodles? Lots of extra energy! Level Six Testing Grounds Level 6 - Fall boating on the Ottawa has been for the desperate or well equipped lately. With Bussy gone it seems like all the paddlers left with it. Regardless of subfreezing temperatures, frozen gear and no one to paddle with I've still managed to paddle almost every day over the past two weeks, and test out some new Level Six gear. Harmony OR Rafting Team - A weekend filled with music. Friday night funk concert, Saturday night primal grooves at the club, and the enlightening peace of the church choir. The soul requires constant maintenance, music the oil that lubricates our energy. Jk Karma M Review worldkayak blogs - On November 2nd I traveled up to Elizabethton TN to connect with Jeremy Gass and Wesley Bradley in preparation for the Green Race. This was the first time I was able to look at a Karma up close. Kayak Fishing Puerto Rico Backwater'S on Fire YakAngler - As usual, fishing is hot in Puerto Rico, but temperatures are dropping as we approach what some would call "winter." Mornings have been still with the normal breeze out of the Northwest. The 2013 Wk Hometown Throwdown Season worldkayak - Each year I get the opportunity to work with a number of great companies that support WW kayaking through the WK Hometown Throwdowns.
