Well, at first I wasn't that impressed with my pics myself, but then, after I added a sprinkle of photoshop to them, they turned out quite well...

I'm looking forward to seeing the gallery with all the pics combined and some commentary to them...

Gallery

Hi Guys
The gallery will happen, but I am horrendously slow at these things. I have a bad habit of avoiding the computer at home....too much computer time at work....and for now I gotta go paddle! I'll try to get it up by the end of the weekend.
:)
Cheers,
Matt

Simme

Sometimes the Simme is just super fun - was on it at about twice the flow from the Armada last night. She's a bit faster like that - waves are bigger too :D

Lucky you!

I've been to the Lech in Austria. We had a very nice water level too but the Lech is more open and a bit easier.

Two C-Boaters though in our group (and lots more in tandem boats doing a training course). Martin tried the Esquif Nitro (although being a buttboater). I'm working hard to help him up that critical step in evolution...

Once you've acquired a taste for it ...

Bernhard also tried to C1 in his EZ by simply kneeling in it. Looked good. He also tried to roll Haralds Twintip C1. Now he wants to put a piece of minicell on his normal buttseat and try more.

Please don`t destroy this fresh new love Marcus :-)
