Tyres

Please note that there are now tyres at the Waterside Centre for training purposes.  They should only be used under the direction of a coach.  They are very heavy and may cause injury if not used properly.

Christmas Money to Spend?

Still using heavy old club paddles? Can't find the correct size? Want to go faster in 2014?

Club paddles are fine when you begin paddling with the club but if you have ambition to go further or faster you need to have your own pair. Help is at hand as Tim is offering his paddles at 2013 prices up until the last Hare and Hounds on 9 February. Speak or email me if you need any advice or if you would like to trial a pair before you place an order.

New stable boats...

We have just taken delivery of five new kayaks. There are made by Elio and have stability similar to a Hobbie / Sceptre. They are finished in the Wey colours.

‘PLEASE NOTE THAT THEY HAVE A HIGHER COCKPIT AND CAN ONLY FIT ON THE TOP RACKS OF THE CLUB SHEDS. COULD YOU PLEASE ASSIST ANY JUNIORS WHO MAY USE THE KAYAKS TO PUT THEM AWAY ON THE TOP RACKS’

We have also noticed that a number of the higher stability kayaks have damage which seems to have been caused by people sitting in them on the grass area. If you see any beginners / club members doing this could you ask them to carry out these checks by putting the kayak on to the water.
