Really enjoying your blog, I’m a newbie who just finished a 2 day clinic at NOC with Rob Barham, my boyfriend and I are both novices (his second time in a kayak and my first) and we ended up being the only 2 signed up for the clinic so we got 2 days of private instruction! It rocked and we ended up buying boats and gear since they were selling of their instructional gear (I got a liquid logic remix 69 and he got a pyrhanna burn). We’re psyched to come to summer roll practice next week, will you be there? Thanks for giving us a glimpse of where we might be in the sport in a couple of years!
