Shepperton is still rocking

So Shepperton is still good to go. It seems mornings are a good level then it gets progessively worse during the day. Not much rain this week so we'll see what happens.

Shepperton is on

With all the rain Shepperton has risen from the ashes.
Im not sure iv seen the weir at this level for about 3 years. The weir pool is still going up so it is turning into more of a hole as you read.
Don't miss it on it's way down.

Water brings the waves

Sunbury weir had been undergoing development for a while and the result is a whole new set of gates similar in size to boulters. With the heavy rain we received a couple of days ago the gates are now open and are forming an awesome braking wave. We paddled hard on Sunday and had some great rides, hopefully with more rain dew the gates will stay open a while longer.
You paddle up the river left eddy and brake out height to catch it. In the middle there is a steep green wave and either side are 2 big wave holes. The green part of the wave is great to surf but can be surge and isn't always as sticky as it looks. It's best to surf just left or just right of the greenest part, you can then set up high, come down fast a throw some really big moves. Some video will be up on the site soon. Check out the pics.

Thaks to Sandro from Switzerland for this shot, i think it was taken in West Virginia after eating a Subway.

Down with Winter

So the Winter season is now upon us, or at least it feels like it.

We need some rain, the Thames is getting lower and there's not much rain forecast, its getting desperate, I might have to start doing something else, like running.
Lets hope it rains soon, start dancing.

White Water The Canoe Centre are going through some changes and are spicing up the shop with a bit of a Hawaiian feel, all we're missing is sand, sun, girls and coconuts.

Photo Shoot

Took a day out with Debs to shoot some life style shots the other day. We spent the day in Bath walking around, snapping away we had a great time.

Thanks to Deb Pinniger for these photos.
