Come one come all, its a Demshitz waterfall running clinic at Agers Falls.  If you are heading to Moose Fest meet at Mountain Man at 10:00 on Saturaday.  We will fall from 11-1.  Get better at timing your boof stroke.  Spot the lip, spot the landing. Then stomp the bow down for a nice soft controlled finish.  Also at 6:30pm we will be showing Demshitz the Movie.  Demshitz movies and shirts will be available.  Hope Yinz can make it. Â

Raindrops rattled off the dustbin outside and sloshed down the drains as the clouds swept over North Wales. The first rain for weeks, proper rain, pink bits on the internet rainfall radar and everything. It would be easy to drop everything and head for the Ogwen. But that’s what we always do. So, I was waiting for the optimum moment the next day to head out for something more eclectic…

    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 consider attending next year. Personally, I instructed a creeking class and presented ‘Demshitz The Movie.’ I had the opportunity to learn from several presentations covering current issues ranging from creating media in the sport to conservation and access issues concerning our endangered rivers. I leave this event with greater knowledge of how to build our sport as well as the work involved to keep our rivers open for business.

The summer is fading away, new snow is appearing on the hills round Voss and a new season approaches!
Right now it feels like it has been raining since June, sun seems a luxury once indulged in, back in June, but overall I would say it has been a great summer. Our rivers have been feed well most of the summer by good snow pack from last winter, but then, just as we thought low water was in, bang, 0 – hero and every things in flood!
In the last month the local river around Voss have gone from low water to full flood about 4 times and counting. The Raundal river goes has gone from 13 cumecs to over 200 in an evening of rain, then back to 50 or so 24 hours later. Needless to say this keeps you on your toes and keeps you guessing where you should head next.

We continued East towards the Enguri, which I’d heard a bit about. It was clear to see why it was labelled as such a big project and would be beyond our small team at this time of year. We paddled a couple of tributaries of this mighty river, the Nenskra & the Mestia, with completely mixed fortunes on both. The first had a good big volume feel to it, getting progressively harder towards the confluence. We decided to get out about 1 km from the end, before it became walled in class V+ & VI, but having descended some tough rapids in front of the whole village. The second had some bedrock gorges every few kms, but each one of these that we scouted was impassable due to stuck trees. We did attempt a section, but this ended with a 40m climb out.

In September this year, three Pyranha team paddlers hit the Stikine including Ali Marshall , Si Tapley and Corey Boux.
This has to be one of the greatest rivers in the world and is one of the most amazing experiences you can go through.
The Stikine is back on the list of rivers to be damned so lets hope it doesn’t happen.
