News Watch Headlines Congrats to Our Ww Team. Mills, Levknecht and Patterson Make Team Usa. Werner - Werner Paddles is proud to announce 3 of our friends and Team members will be representing the USA at the 2013 ICF Canoe Freestyle World Championships this coming September. Eric Terrien's Carolina Cup Recap SUPracer - The 2013 Carolina Cup was huge. Hundreds of paddlers descended on Wrightsville Beach, including many of the world's best, to instantly make this one of the races of 2013. Paddling Technique – Boofing Palm Blogs - A 'boof' according to the New Zealand Whitewater Guide by Graham Charles is an onomatopeia for the sweet sound a boat makes after clearing a nasty drop. Streetfighter in Plastic Corran SUP - Corran Sup is pleased to announce the release of the Streetfighter in plastic. The Streetfighter has received high praise from all that have used it, and it is quoted as being .The best whitewater SUP out there by far. Until now it was available only in kevlar construction, costing three times what the plastic version will sell for. Us Freestyle Team Named At Noc Playak - Don't let the scores in the finals of the U.S. Freestyle Team Trials sway your thoughts as to the caliber of today's top freestyle kayakers. With two inches of rain falling in three hours, on top of a scheduled water release and another surprise Cascade release, the hole was a little flushy by day's end. Feature Athlete of The Month Level 6 - Level Six has been a significant part of my life for over 5 years. I am honored to be part of such a great company who continues to grow their line of product, their quality of product and their customer service year after year. Go Paddle in Brazil Jackson Kayak - As an incredible boater, Rudnei knows a bunch of rivers in Brazil that never has been paddle. With the support of Bruno Alves we drove around 12 hours South of Brazil to a little city named Santo Amaro da Imperatriz. Introducing The Frontier 10 NuCanoe - The Frontier 10 is here and it is all that we hoped it would be. Super stable, incredibly maneuverable,completely customizable, and easy to handle off the water. We are sure you'll be impressed too. Selections for Team France Level 6 - This year, to win a place in Team France and thereby compete in the Freestyle World Championships in Nantahala, USA, from 2nd to 8th September, athletes first have to partake in a two-step selection procedure. The first took place in Tournon St Martin in the Center region on the 6th and 7th April. Uganda 2013 Phil Mitchell - This year over the Christmas break instead of partaking in the usual seasonal festivities in the UK I got invited to head out for 2 weeks of luxury paddling in Africa with some good friends. A Great White Shark'S First Look At The Cuda 14 Jackson Kayak - As the sole fishing team member in Hawaii, I've recently taken receipt of the first Jackson fishing boat to enter Hawaiian waters (as far as I know). I've been out on three trips into the big blue in conditions ranging from glassy calm to 12 knot winds and 6′ swells, and the Cuda 14 has performed very well indeed. Bending The Bomars Just Yakkin - The Bomar deck plates I installed in the Black Pearl never kept out the water like I hoped they would. Sometimes they would remain relatively dry while other times, they would leak like freakin' sieves!! It was starting to get on my nerves. Canoe Paddling as a Way to Get Kids Outdoors Fat Paddler - In the modern age of technology it's pretty hard to drag your children away from the lure of ipads, the internet or games like Minecraft. With school holidays upon us my kids would have happily locked themselves away in a dark corner of the house with a tablet and filled hours of time with a game or three thousand. Capital Cup 2013 Wrap-Up Level 6 - Thank you to everyone who showed up to the 2013 Level Six Capital Cup to watch and compete! This year's Capital Cup provided us, once again, with heated competition and solid representation from the paddling world's finest freestyle kayakers.
