Well! Long time no post! Check out the helmets!! Predator mo fo! Just got the delivery yesterday and I am like a kid at christmas! They are kick ass! Fit so well with enough paddling options to fit any weird head! Loving the colours got a nice yellow Predator Lee and the White/Black Six. The Six has looks to have amazing strength and I am going to be a lot happier having the full face for those narrow rocky Irish creeks!
My favouite thing about them is they just look the SH%T!
So we had Easter week 2 weeks ago! Off to Nottingham with Siobhan, Bowser and Dee! What a spot1 Apart from the quality of water that place is brilliant! There were 2 prime holes on the section at our level, top hole and the second pool which was a nasty beating hole! Both spots were great, top hole for learning moves and 2nd pool for working on tricks in a nice fast dynamic spot!
A few pointers if your planning a trip yourself!
->Flying is easy, bus to 5min walk from course for £3.50. Driving is easy also and if you fit 4 in car plus boats its a lot cheaper!
->Check water levels prior arrival, if its too high course can shut due to water quality
->Course fee is £10 a day
->Camping bring warmer gear
->Wellys!
->ASDA is the place to shop, watch out it closed sunday eve, 24hours my arse!
->Avoid eating out, you will not be filled, impossible to find good place!
->2 sessions, 1 sessions, 2 sessions!
->Coaching is available and a great way to see what your doing wrong.
->Video yourself, so useful for getting moves dialled
->There are changing rooms in HPP! Leave your gear there between morn and eve sessions!
Cheap, fun and great kayaking!
Bowser has the camera footage I'l have photos and video soon!!
For the rest of Easter we got some stellar sessions at Curragower wave and are all pumped for Nationals 1st May, loads of moves going on! Also watch out for em Galway boys! Some banter had in the dark and dirty streets of Limerick!haha
