Atlas, aka Oscar C.

Posted by Freya on August 14, 2008

This is ATLAS  (aka Oscar C.)  in Husum…

he dared to join the fight of the Titans against the Olympian gods (and godesses…) - therefore Greek god Zeus damned him to carry the heaven on his shoulders for eternity…

what is heaven??

Delmarva 2007

Thanks to the organizer Ed Zachowski from Qajaq USA for inviting me!
 
In between my work to prepare my x-mas shop with 5000 items and closing down my ice-cream shops (…ahhh, and between some trip-preparations for New Zealand, too…) I headed for a quick 3-days trip to Delmarva/ USA as a special guest to give a slide show and lecture about Greg’s and my Iceland circumnavigation this summer.

 

 

Kanumesse Nürnberg 2007

Kanumesse Nürnberg 2007
It was a great place to meet and to talk to plenty of kayaking buisiness people from all over the world!
It was a real international event, I had interesting talks to people from Britain, Sweden, Denmark, Netherlands, France, Norway, Finland, Iceland, Spain, Italy, Switzerland, Czech, South Africa, USA and for sure from Germany, too. Who knows where I’ll be going next year…
 
Who ever in the kayaking industry missed this event - it is growing every year! 2008 will be even topped again with number of exhibitors and probably visitors, too. It is one of the best kayaking market places in Europe.
 
Chris Reed, www.chillcheater.com, and his "model", in Reed buisiness-outfit :-)
Thanks, Reed!
 

Oscar Chalupski, epic kayaks co-owner, gives me a big hug and good luck for for my future adventures, for sure paddling again with a brand new epic wing blade.

110 kg submarine rolling

Posted by Freya on September 11, 2007
 
Last weekend in Finland…
 
…my tiny littel kayak, not used to be a submarine…
 
 
…took 110 kg! You could tell it rolled on it’s own…
 
 

…but Henrik, you did a great job! Flexible and elegant, I wish I had a video…

 
 

…anyway: head down! :-))

 

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Later *I*was paddling my little submarine…
 

 

…capsize came so sudden…

 

Youth inspiration

Posted by Freya on August 11, 2007

I am happy to present two new female young talents to the sea kayaking community!

They both wrote to me they’ve got the idea by my TITS III video, so I am honored to be kind of an inspiration model to the youngsters…

Well, we are all looking forward to see more soon!

Symposium Llanca-Spain - Wendy Killoran

Posted by Freya on April 29, 2007
First time I was on the water again with my old paddling friend Wendy from last year’s Newfoundland trip!
 
I made her relaxing in Greenlandic style…
 
 

But she was excited to kiss a frog (fish…) soon!
