I was stoked to see so many Pyranha team members out there racing and see so many Burns tearing it up! The Green Race was a huge success this year with a record breaking 126 racers!
We are very lucky to have such a perfect river to have an event—classic class V rapids, no portages, reliable water, and access for those who want to watch the action.

The weekend just passed saw Jamie and myself head over to Hexham, Northumberland for the annual Tyne Tour to show off Pyranha’s fleet of demo boats. With over 1000 paddlers turning up there was lots of hardcore socialising to be done.

We ended up enjoying ourselves so much in the bustling trade stand area that we never quite made it onto the water, but as anyone who has been to the event before knows, its not really about the boating. I don’t know how we managed to fit it all in, handing out demo boats, answering questions, meeting up with friends from all over the country and beer drinking but we did and Jamie even managed to find some time to go kit shopping…

Jamie has recently been inspired by Trinny and Susannah’s “What Not to Wear”. He felt that the Tyne Tour was the perfect place to get inspiration for his new look.

The Annual Scottish Canoe show in Perth, Scotland bought the ideal opportunity for me to hook up and boat with Scottish local paddler Cam Allan for a couple of days. It also gave Cam chance to put the medium sized Ammo through its paces.

Well the rain has brought the Susquehanna river up and the Holtwood section has gotten some use. Holtwood is a great spot and everchanging the hydro dam can change the water level several feet in just a few minutes. This area serves up some great rides. check out
