Dagger Nomad 8.5 Dagger Blogs - I have had the chance to paddle many different boats since I started kayaking in the summer of 2003. Up until this fall I have focused mostly on play boating and running class II-III rivers. I knew it was time to step it up when I tried out my friends Nomad 8.5 in the spring of 2013 and everything just felt right. International Rafting Federation Guide Assessment GRG Blog - Maila and a few of our other staff are currently on the Marsyandi River getting their International Rafting Federation (IRF) Trip Guide and Leader for Grade IV/V River assessment. Followed by some of our junior staff getting their Grade III qualification. Frankie Baby Christina Russell - Winter is in full swing here and we are prepping for this Christmas season. Mom and dad are making tons of progress on their move and even put up the tree this week. Life After Shoulder Surgery Jackson Kayak - Every kayaker has either said or heard the preach "look after your shoulders!" but no one truly realizes how important it is until the damage is done. Even if you think your shoulders are strong or even bulletproof, damage is done so easy. Drysuits Must Have by Team Paddler, Mike Darbyshire Nikki Rekman - Cold and clear makes for some amazing paddling conditions here in Vancouver but with the cold comes a whole new level of preparedness. Photo of The Week Land of The Giants Casting Tales - My friend Rob and I just got back from a three day scouting trip to Louisiana. Rob had never fished Louisiana, so I was eager to show him what the marshes of Louisiana had to offer. There's no place like Louisiana in the world. It's the best redfish fishery on the planet. Memories of Nelson Mandela International Rivers - Nelson Mandela, who passed away today, was one of my very few personal heroes. Through the World Commission on Dams report, his life-long commitment to human rights dignity briefly shone a light on our own modest work. 3 Days, 3 Countries, 100 Miles, 1 Lake. Mario Stecher Sup'S Germany'S Lake Constance Tahoe SUP - This past summer, Mario Stecher went on tour around Germany's largest lake, Lake Constance on his Tahoe SUP Rubicon.

That completes the 3,700 mile trip from Brower's Spring, SUP Fly Fishing in the Cold Jackson Kayak - The air temperature was 31 and the water was in the mid 40's when I slid my SUPerFISHal into one of my local honey holes. While most people wouldn't consider it an ideal day on the SUP, the conditions were perfect for my plan. My target would be carp on the fly. Kayaking At -8c Skaha Lake to The Crash Site Kayak Okanagan - Kayaking at -8c is not a problem as long as the weather is good and there is minimal wind today I paddled on Skaha Lake to the Crash Site to have a look at the wreckage.
