Dipper Creek BC
Dipper Creek is an amazing run in BC that is a tributary of the Squamish River. Last week a team of six of us including three Team Pyranha paddlers (Ali Marshall , Cody Howard and Ben Hawthorne), paddled its second descent and ran alot of first descent falls in it. This river is VERY physical. Â

2009 Whitewater Symposium
    First, I would like to say ‘thanks’ to Zoar Outdoors and the Zoar staff for helping create this year’s whitewater symposium. The 2009 Whitewater Symposium was the first I ever attended. If you have an interest in whitewater sports and it’s continued growth in the future, this is an event you definitely should …

After 2 years of waiting… Garb!
Fall has arrived here on the Ottawa River. It is a time when I’m sad to see friends depart from a summer of fun on the river, but ecstatic that the lines ups are gone!  This past weekend was one to remember. The weather was abnormally mild and the water was still very warm. I headed to …

(No title)
Have just got approval to take 2010 away from my usual work and spend a year doing research on the value of (NZ South Island) West Coast whitewater to recreational users. Will involve a methodical approach to kayaking every whitewater river in the area…and my shoulder is just about fixed too. Will also need to …
