Ladakh

Just spent a month in India exploring an area near Indian /Chinese border up in Ladakh.Unseasonal weather meant snow on high passes stopped us going over one pass at 5700m.Amazing place and the only people we came across were the nomads bringing there livestock down for winter

We came across wolves ,wild asses Yaks and Eagles .It was a very barren and dry place.

New Delphin playboat

A couple of shots of the new Delphin prototype playboat from P&H .we got a chance to paddle it over weekend

New P&H boats

Got a chance to paddle the new P&h boats in pembroke this weekend.The new cetus mv fitted me perfectly,not quite aas fast as cetus and not as stable it still responds and turns very well.I want one!

Walso got a chance to paddle the Delphin the new playboat .While not pleasing on the eye at the moment it certainly is very responsive.Looking forward to a proper session in the races in a couple of weeks

Graham got feedback from Nige Robinson and Sid Sinfeild and John Carmondy over the day

Moskenstraumen

Mosekenstaumen or the Maelstrom. Managed to paddle this out to Vaeroy with Nigel .A long term ambition fufilled and one of the best days i have ever had in a kayak.We caught the whirpool early and although exciting it was ok. Arrived at Vaeroy at 9 pm and had a great ferry journey back to Moskenes

Lofoten Islands

Back here again climbing ,paddling and working for local Jann of Lofoten Kayak. A brilliant place for climbing and sea kayaking. Jann is going to write a guide to this area ,with a little help and a push ,so keep your eye out or just get out and check it all out.Nigel robinson well known sea coach out of his usual element!

watching the paddlers

Busy day at wen zawn lots of paddlers in the water and a few climbers on the classics .We managed a few classics then as a team of 3 ,i managed a few shots . As usual the big ferry wave was making a noise

northerly winds pick it up

A northerly breeze and swell and a reasonable tide kicks it up at pt lynas .Steve riley shreds a few and looks a little alone as i pop out to get a few photos . Works best on ebb just after HW
