Silnylon Tarp

Silnylon is a super lightweight fabric that is used for many things including tarps and stuff sacks. The Silnylon Tarp shown here was created using a pretty standard home sewing machine. It can be a little tricky to sew as the fabric is impregnated with silicone which is fairly slippy.

However with a little patience you can produce some pretty nice kit. One of the hardest parts is actually getting hold of the material. In the UK this isn’t easy but many of the US suppliers will happily send fabric out.

Student Boater X 2013

The 2013 Student Boater X is taking place on the 22nd of June. For a little flavour of what it is all about check out this write up from Jack Roberston about last years event. Enjoy!

The Student Boater X is the biggest unofficial kayaking event on the student paddling calendar and now officially recognised by Bomb Flow it was going to be the biggest so far. With guaranteed sun, cool alpine flows and a huge selection of prize to be won it wasn’t hard to persuade a few hundred student paddlers that a spontaneous inter uni race down the L’Argentiere-la-Bessee slalom course was a good idea. There were five categories, catering for all levels of paddler. With old boys and girls competing for the Bloater X title and swimmers for the Inflatey X title, everyone else found themselves in a fight for the beginner, intermediate and advanced prizes.

Cow Tails

During the late 80’s and early 90’s the Cow Tail seemed a pretty common accessory to have attached to your rescue PFD. Over the years they seem to have fallen out of favour.

May be this is a genuine change in focus of use or may be it’s because they are now an extra that needs to be paid for?
