Kit Update March 2013

I have had several emails asking for another run down of my kit and how it is holding up, so here goes. First and foremost my Astral Brewer shoes haven’t had a look in. Time and time again I go for the Five Ten Water Tennies. Through the winter they have been great. They’ve performed […]

Wavesport Recon 93 – First Look

Way back last year I was lucky enough to be the first in the UK to paddle the New Wavesport Recon 83. I fell in love with the boat instantly as it reminded me how FUN paddling can be. Soon after I ordered a Recon 93. I reckon I could happily paddle either the 93 […]

North Tyne Run 6th January 2013

I had a little run down the North Tyne today from Chollerford to Acomb today. The North Tyne is a grade II/III run in the North East of England and in paddling circles is probably best known as the main venue for the Tyne Tour. A week ago the water levels had been up and […]

Kayak Repair – A Few Observations

Over the past few months I have repaired splits in the following boats: Liquid Logic Stomper 90 Bliss Stick Huka x 2 Pyranha Karnali Pyranha Burn L Dagger Nomad 8.5 Bliss Stick Huka Zet Raptor Liquid Logic Jefe It has been really interesting to see how the plastic responds to heat and the repair process […]

Removing A Liquidlogic Seat

The shots below show the process of removing a seat from a Liquid Logic Stomper. The way in which this seat is fastened into the shell will be very similar to all other recent LL kayaks. Before removing the seat I used a pencil to mark the inside of the hull so I knew its […]

Immersion Research Special K Spray Deck

For the past 15 years I have been exclusively using playboater spraydecks. However as I was buying a new Immersion Research (IR) Double D Drysuit I thought I’d take the opportunity of ordering an IR deck for my LL Stomper at the same time. The model I chose was the Immersion Research Special K spray […]

Kayaking and Maths (or Math if you are from the USA)

I have always used airbags in my boats as they prevent part of the boat filling with water during a capsize. After a recent forced swim I was interested in how heavy my boat was when it was filled with water. I currently have a couple of liquid logic boats – a Stomper 90 and […]

Another GoPro Kayak Mount

Another great design from Mr Phil Higgins. Total cost – less than £12

River Tees – High to Low Force

Today has a number of firsts. My first time in my Liquid Logic Stomper, my first time paddling with a Uni club (many thanks Teesside Uni) and my first swim on the Tees! When I left home this morning Rainchasers.com was indicating that the level was a low 0.71 on the gauge. In reality this […]

Current Kit – Jan 2012

The old current kit topics on the forum were always popular, so I thought I’d give you all an update of my current kit.

Playboater Workdeck – Review

Since the production of the I.T.S deck Playboater has long been established as one of the best spraydeck manufacturers in the UK if not the world. Over the years I have owned three Playboater decks. The first being an I.T.S deck followed by two workdecks. I still have all three and all three are in […]
