Surf’s Up

Bank holiday weekend in the UK gives everyone an extra day off to go boating (or DIY or whatever!)  This time of year with the river’s drying up, many kayakers hit the surf looking for some power, speed and trashings.

Easter Adventures in Morocco

We rocked up to Marrakech airport and found our Omar, our driver for the trip. He led us out to a ~14 seater minibus (well, it would have been if a load of seats hadn’t been removed). It was complete overkill for only five people, this was going to be travelling in luxury.

The plan for the 2 week trip was to cruise down a few sunny multidays, nothing too hard if our 20 year old German guidebook was anything to go by. We started off with a warm-up run on the Ourika, followed by a 70km 2-day run down the spectacular Dades river.

Team Training at HPP

Well, last weekend saw the second GBR training weekend. Two beautiful summer days, combined with great organisation and coaching, made for a great weekend on the water.

Saturday saw the team meeting up at the rugby club and being split up into workshops. The workshops on offer ranged from learning or perfecting a specific move with Sam Ward to planning a competition run with Ross Montanadon, “Sneaky Pete”, and Dennis Newton. The workshops were fantastic, and every paddler took away something to bear in mind from each workshop. In the evening, Matt Chadder arranged games of dodgeball and basketball, with teams split up into north and south and juniors versus seniors, which proved to be highly entertaining.

Sunday was another day of paddling and taking part in workshops missed on Saturday. Team training finished for the weekend at 3 o’clock with a demonstration on how to improve core strength.

A huge thank you must go to Matt Chadder and the Freestyle Committee for arranging the weekend and also to the coaches who gave up their time to come and help.

Corse We Can!

Filming for Means of Production 2 has been continuing in Corsica! But it hasn’t all been simple fun and games; oh no.

April 4th: Lucy and Luke picked me up from my grandmother’s house in London and we shot off at high speed to catch our ferry. However things took a turn for the inconvenient when Luke’s radiator exploded just before reaching the dartford crossing.

We were towed back to my grandmother’s, had a cup of coffee and decided: if Luke’s car wouldn’t take us, then my Vauxhall Corsa Can. Ha!

It would be a 3000 mile round trip that would leave me without brakes and spending around £500 on repairs and losing a kayak. But it was worth it. (Full boat-losing story at www.maxbilbow.com)

Observing a ferral existence, we barely had time to string up a hammock; setting up camp wherever we could, we managed so circumnavigate the Island in a week.
