Getting it together....

With kick off only a few months away  Eurion and myself are taking turns to travel to each other so we can train together. Living miles away this sometimes involves new experiences. I travelled to South Wales from mine in London for a few days of poor weather, warm hospitality, good food , big waves, cold rescue practise  and  the worst stand up comedy ever.


Eight months back I was stuck here at Rest Bay on a circumnavigation of Wales getting off this time was tough too.


Surfing and rolling



I had to roll a fair few times but was glad not to swim. Eurion did not have to roll or swim !
More practise in surf needed for me...



Eurion then travelled down to me for some very cold urban paddling . After a curry and some Expedition planning we made an early start for a 50k around trip to Greenwich. Amongst others we met up with and paddled with Michal & Natalie Madera  who are also attempting a circumnavigation this spring. Both looked at the top of their game and were very friendly.http://homeseahome.com/

Eurion had never paddled on the Tideway and would not put his camera away
