I just got back from running around the West Coast premiering our new video “Pulse”. I was fortunate enough to hit some rivers in Cali, Colorado, and Idaho. Here are some photos of the action. This weekend I also competed in the Northwest Creeking Competition and will put up some photos when I get them, really looking forward to Little White Giant Slalom Race next weekend.

Swapping play boat for creek boat, 40 degrees C to -5, sun for snow, big volume for low, Africa for Scotland…
The River Nile, steaming at sunrise, Uganda
Snow capped Etive Valley, Glen Coe, Scotland
The now ritual, Easter, low water, trek to the west coast of Scotland. With Snow capped hills and daily flurries whilst on the water it was a shock to the system to say the least! However getting back to grips with the Burn and getting back out on the UK rivers was awesome…
Photos from the River Etive
Thanks to Birmingham University Kayak Club, for organising the trip and creating much amusement both on and off the river

Massive rains in the Eastern US mean massive waves on the New River Dries. I bee-lined it for West Virginia to put the Rev through it’s paces on a big wave.

A tough boof on the Riñinahue.
Still down here in Chile making the most of low water. A group of us headed south from Pucon en route to the Futaleufu to hang out and kayak for the remainder of our stay here in Chile. On the way we ran the Salto del Nilahue and got a possible 1st descent of 2 drops on the Riñinahue near by.

Last weekend there was a big exhibition show in Munich – all about outdoor, caravans, sports… I was asked together with a friend to give some little freestyle shows in the pool of the water sports section there with our new Revs. The worked amazingly well in the flatwater, the loops were quite easy to control, heaps of fun! We actually had quite a lot of spectators, even though we made them wet all the time…
