Waka have released some images of their new Steeze kayak. The Steeze has a pod based system that allows you to control the boats volume.

It’s been some time since we’ve seen this type of system on a whitewater kayak.
Check it out.
Beaverfest this year was fantastic.

Slides were slid, eddies were caught and carnage was well, a sure thing. Here is a short video recapping what took place at one of the best whitewater gatherings in the east.

It looks like the Wavesport Prototype spotted a while back has gone into production. This follows Wavesport being taken on by Gaybo UK.

We now know it is called the Phoenix.
The Tyne Tour is one of the best kayak/canoe events in the UK. Since its origins as the Mike Jones Rally the Tyne tour has become a firm favourite of mine. Most paddlers will stick to the area around Hexham and Tyne Green but there are several other stretches of water in the local area that are worth looking at. This post is not designed to be a definitive guide in any way but is intend to offer a few ideas so you can maximise your paddle time and choice if attending the tour. So here we have it The Tyne Tour – A Brief Water Guide.

Camping, food and retailers are all based at Tyne Green right on the river bank in Hexham. Hexham is large market town so there are plenty of shops, pubs and takeaways if required.

The main river for the tour is the North Tyne. Local canoe/kayak clubs provide safety cover on the largest whitewater section of the North Tyne at Rescue Rock. Each Saturday of the Tyne Tour you will find me sat on Rescue Rock taking thousands of still images.
Outfitting your kayak or canoe correctly is always a great idea. If the boat fits you well, it will paddle better.
Unsponsored is packed with outfitting tips and guides, but here is a video from Bren Orton detailing the outfitting of a Pyranha kayak.
