Storm Desmond hit the UK hard last weekend with an unprecedented amount of rain falling in a very short time. Many rivers in the North were simply too high to paddle. However some of the smaller burns and creeks came into play pretty quickly. Martin Butler and crew were on Eggleston Burn last weekend making the most of the bad weather.
James Bebbington has created this just over 6 minutes masterpiece – SAS Hurley Classic Highlights. It is superb. Jame certainly has a knack for this sort of thing.
Here’s a run down of a few of the things that kayakers, canoeists and SUP paddlers may like as a pressie from Father Christmas. All could be useful and all are items that I either own or have tested.
I am assuming that other large bits of kit are already on the list!

Team Substantial spent another summer in the great land of the Midnight Sun. We were graced with perfect flows, amazing scenery, a great crew and too many rivers/waterfalls to count! In this episode watch as Evan Garcia runs the infamous “Matze’s Drop”, the boys paddle the Stor Ula slides, and a sunny day on the Skøli.
We have had some series rain over the last month here in the North East of England. The water table is topped up and it doesn’t take much to get the rivers flowing high.
The River Tees from High Force to Low Force isn’t that #sTEESy at high levels. Mathew Wilkinson takes a dip and swims with a little help to safety.
It’s Movie Monday 7 December 2015 already. The first Movie Monday of December, where has the year gone? We have numerous top class edits for your viewing pleasure. Enjoy!
Over the last few weeks I have been looking at the wide range of accessories that I own for use with the GoPro. I have whittled the list down to the 10 best GoPro accessories that I would buy again if I was starting out from scratch.
I have not included any items that are no longer widely available, such as the MountStar mount.
The GoPro App:
It’s free and makes the setting up of any Wifi enabled GoPro super easy.
The Contour outfitting system within Dagger kayaks is in my opinion the best system out there. However it does come with a weight penalty. The new Nomad for example no longer comes with the seat tray fitted for exactly this reason.
The Stikine for years has been considered the pinnacle of big volume expedition kayaking, however for years the Site Zed rapids remained un-run. Now years later after Ben Marr broke the spell, finally taking on the beast, the worlds best paddlers have had it in their sights.
I had been lucky enough to witness 6 descents of the beast. It looked real good at these flows but still not been my time! one day!
Nick Pearce gives us his initial thoughts on the new Zet Toro.
Earlier this week I was lucky enough for my new Toro to arrive in Voss. Now the days here are getting very short and there is a good layer of snow up high, winter is defiantly just around the corner. And It will be time for skiing. But not quite yet so yesterday we got on the Raundalselvi and I was able to put the Toro though it’s paces.
First impressions, it’s simply amazing but here is a bit of a break down on the boat.
