High water year in Colorado

by Greg Parker | Jul 21, 2019 | Internationalisation, Playboating, Rockstar 4.0, United States, Whitewater, WW Disciplines

With around 135% snow pack in the mountains, high levels have been sustained across the state. Many rivers and playspots, that are usually only good a few weeks a year, are still flowing now in mid-late July. Unfortunately, I haven’t been able to do a lot of...

Find Whats Best for YOU

by Michael Ernst | Jul 21, 2019 | Coosa, Fishing, Internationalisation, Kraken, United States

The best kayak for might not be the best for you! We all know that the Jackson Coosa was built for small rivers and moving water, and that the Big Rig was built for stability in big water and to stand and fish out of. Also that the Kraken was designed for offshore...

Extremesport Veko recap

by teamjk | Jul 17, 2019 | Creeking, Internationalisation, Nirvana, Norway, Whitewater, WW Disciplines

For me, and many other whitewater kayakers, the extremesport week at Voss is an annual thing we’re not willing to miss. I’ve already lost count on how many times I’ve been. This year, Veko was hosting the European championship. This meant there was even more kayakers...

The International Canoe Federation (ICF) Freestyle World Championships happen every two years on either a wave or a hole feature. This year’s World Championships just finished in Sort, Spain and it was a fabulous experience. The town of Sort is a small town in...

Hey guys, it’s Andi again with the story about the Extreme Kayak European Championship in Norway. I went there directly after my stay in America for the World Championship. As every year, the Ekstremsportveko took place in Voss. The Veko is one of the biggest...

Get Right to the Point

by joey monteleone | Jul 8, 2019 | Fishing, Internationalisation, United States

You’ve been waiting for this, you unload your kayak and head out. You have your favorite baits tied on and you head straight to the bank because that’s what you always do. I refer to it as a “milk run.” But today nobody is home, no bites, no activity. It could be a...

Oops… I did it again! Lakes Rover Kayak Competition 2019

by Sam Baxter | Jul 6, 2019 | Event Coverage, Fishing, Fishing Tournament, Internationalisation, UK

Whilst visiting the Lake District last week we attended this year’s Lakes Rover Kayak Competition, like most kayak comps but with a difference, you can pretty much fish any lake you like. This brings it’s own issues as some lakes fish better than others...

Hey guys, it is Andy here. Guess what, I’ve been to North Fork Championship in June and it was amazing. Lucky me, I was with my friend Janosch Plathner there and could share this amazing experience with him. But first, what is the North Fork Championship? The North...

Pike Fishing In The Lakes

by Sam Baxter | Jul 2, 2019 | Cruise FD, Fishing, Internationalisation, UK

I do love a bit of Pike fishing but I live on the north east coast of England and we aren’t exactly blessed with many Pike fishing venues. For me the best place is the UK’s Lake District national park across the country from me, it’s a stunning place...

River Run Park is finally flowing!

by Greg Parker | Jun 26, 2019 | Internationalisation, Playboating, Rockstar 4.0, United States, Video, Whitewater, WW Disciplines

River Run Park in Denver was completed last spring, but it didn’t run in 2018 because it was a low water year. After a snowy winter, the South Platte was running 800 cfs the other day, so I finally went test out the new spots. For beginner kayakers, this park...

First days on the water with my new Kilroy

by Gergely Kapocsi | Jun 24, 2019 | Fishing, Hungary, Internationalisation, Kilroy

I ordered a new kayak last year, which is suitable for fishing in wet conditions (and maybe for some hunting), has enough place for my dog and provides stability and speed for long trips. Yes, this is the Kilroy for me. It arrived in April to Hungary and as the...
