I paddled up to Alcatraz in San Francisco Bay – the world’s famous prison island – quite some tides around!

More than hundred kayaks were launching all of the three symposium mornings from Sausalito marina, right besides the Golden Gate Bridge (picture by Jeff Allen).

Lofoten/ Norway

Talk about going to the freezer from the frying pan. A few days after I returned home from warm and sunny Hawaii, I was invited to teach for the weekend in the beautiful-but- far-chillier Loften, Norway.

Jann Engstad from Lofoten Aktiv was kind enough to invite me to lead a rolling clinic as well as do a slideshow about my recent circumnavigation of New Zealand’s South Island.

I would like to thank Hans Heupink, who invited me and did a great job on the organisation, and my co-teachers Gerard, Nico, Sien and Govert, as well as Axel, Tom and Dick helping out to “entertain” the students while not being supervised by me.

Digging in the Underground…

Posted by Freya on January 30, 2007

Yeahhhhhh! Aled is probably one of the few Greenland kayak builders who is able to PADDLE, too, and damn good!

And nobody can say my new Rockpool Underground isn’t tested well!

Have a look at this little video, taken by Justine Cugenven for TITS III…
