The world's latest paddling headlines.

News Watch Headlines Freestyle Kayak Skills with Pringle Palm Blogs - Being from the UK, one of the first obstacles I had to overcome was how to do the moves in shallow features. It's an invaluable skill to have for many reasons. FNA "Bomber" Helmet Review Idaho Creeking - Fitting- Every helmet includes foam strips of different thicknesses. These foam strips have an adhesive side. So when you decide where you want them, just peel and stick. I sat down with a knife and began cutting up the strips and testing the fit. Kayak Spring Break on Tybee Chicago Area Sea Kayakers Association - A group of ten paddlers from Prairie Coast Paddlers (and CASKA) recently went to Tybee Island, Georgia for a week of paddling in the Atlantic and intercoastal waters. Running in California Robin Betz - This summer I had the opportunity of a life time to join up with a solid crew of friends (Mefford Williams, Amos Shuman, and Toby MacDermott) in the Sierras and ride the late and long drawn out snowmelt season of California. Go Where Go Don'T Go Where I Don'T Go MassiveCock Productions - So there have been some more adventures mostly involving far too much water and no photographs. Oh and even some rain. I know, in California! But for you're enjoyment I have some more pics from The South Branch of the Middle Feather. Fav Photos From 2010 Boofington Heights - Time has been limited for this father of two and as such, I've just been sitting on a bunch of images from last year. Verde Wild & Scenic Brian Vogt - Allow me to first say these photos were taken by Nick Borelli, Shaun Riedinger, and Bill Tuthill as well as myself, and my poor file management has left me unable to properly assign each photo to its creator. Where to Position Oars on a Raft Rapid Magazine Blog - Center mounts place the oarlocks at the halfway point along the raft's waterline, putting the power on the pivot point. This is ideal for very heavy loads, and is the most common setup for multi-day rigs. McCloud River & Mt. Shasta Adventure Sierra Sojourner - On our way north this summer, we couldn't avoid the attraction of that prominent feature in the distance: Mount Shasta. In the most northern region of The Sierras, the 14,000 ft volcano's glaciers glimmered for miles. Team Northeast Rivers Aquatic Evolution - It's not easy getting ready for a five-week kayaking trip. There's a lot of food packing, gear packing, and staff development. Staff development is our favorite Garden State Sea Kayak Symposium ACA - Tuktu Paddles & the Jersey Shore Sea Kayak Association (JSSKA) along with regional outfitters and guide services are partnering to host the Garden State Sea Kayak Symposium on June 8th and 9th 2013. Indian River Paddle Classic Space Coast Kayak Fishing - The 2nd Annual Indian River Paddle Classic kayak fishing tournament for Coastal Charities will be held on September 25th all along the Space Coast. The captain's meeting will be held at Strike Zone fishing and tackle store on New Haven Avenue in Melbourne, Florida at 7:00 PM on Friday, September 24th. Great Showing At Dana Point Ocean Challenge Werner - Taking the Top Spot on the podium was one of newest Team members, SUP Co's Jaime Donnelly. Great job Jaime, way to represent in your first race.
