A stressful first week of term sitting exams and meeting deadlines left many members of EUCC exhausted and disheartened however their spirits were revitalised after Thursday’s epic social of Pub Golf! We met just after 6pm in the Ram! An early start but very necessary as we had 9 holes to visit, with our final destination at Arena! Great fancy dress efforts were made by all and with some big names present from the sporting world of golf; we even had our own Tiger Woods! Score cards were then handed out, rules explain and after a quick game of putting …Read the Rest
It was an eventful start with Dongwon and Noah going over, and Seb, wishing to be nonconformist, opting for a swim all within the first few minutes on the first feature. From then on the trip proceeded with little excitement, much to the disappointment of Beans (who made his views on the choice of river very clear, very often), until Mr Quack decided to go over on a flat section and refusing to be T-rescued by Noah who was becoming increasingly impatient. Beans helped by hurling Mr Quack’s abandoned paddles into a tree. Rob also managed to go over and …Read the Rest
Pre-Christmas Dinner Upper Dart: Since several ex-members were down for the weekend and the dart was almost lapping the ledge, we decided to head off to the upper! We put in at dartmeet and decided to paddle as one big group at a leisurely pace which made for a nice, chilled out afternoon. We arrived back in Exeter with just about enough time to quickly change and head on to the christmas dinner in time! Well done to Jacky for surviving her first trip on the upper and still smiling after taking a couple of swims along the way! Survivors …Read the Rest
Here is a little edit of some of the GoPro footage from last years Alps trip, Slovenia! Lovely crystal-clear, turquioise water (apart from the night after the river flooded!), hot sunshine, amazing scenery and of course fantastic rivers for kayaking – I’m looking foward to the Alps trip 2012 already! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DsCCFfHlmj8 {lang: ‘en-GB’}
Here is a little edit of some paddling on the Tryweryn, Lee Valley Whitewater centre, the Erme and the Upper dart from this Autumn! Let me know what you think. (I have only just started using Sony Vegas for editing though, so be nice!) A few more videos on the way when I get time to actually do them… {lang: ‘en-GB’}
Meeting at the Cave at 09.00, decided to cancel our plans to run the Walkham and instead followed the water to the Loop. Being the third or fourth loop trip in a row for some people, we were a bit trepidatious as to how it would be, but with the water lapping the slab the trip looked promising. There were many people around, including Reading Uni Canoe Club, and lots of paddlers who had come down for the Gene17 weekend. The levels gave us a much less scrapy run, although it also led to a fair few swims. With many …Read the Rest
