Hey fellow playakers,

I put up a web site a few weeks back. I'm starting to log my trips from the start of this year on it. Hopefully once I have gotten over the back log I can look at adding some more features to the site.

Being based in Australia, hopefully it can grow to showcase some of what Australia has to offer in the way of whitewater kayaking (with a bit of overseas stuff thrown in the mix).

Check it out at www.padallen.com

If you're interested in reading about what Australia has to offer whitewater kayakers, subscribe to the RSS feed or put in your email address up the top right and hit Subscribe.

Any comments and feedback is welcomed.


Cheers!

The trips up there at the moment are from New Zealand. Plenty of Aussie whitewater to come!

There's a lot more better paddling in Australia than the Tully. But rivers are rain dependant, and tully dam release, so you're always guaranteed flow.

But we also have some of the best beaches in the world for when the rivers run dry :)

Thanks for posting them up knoxy.

I've watched his vids and they're top quality and really show some of what Australia has to offer. If anyone likes these video's, Adrian has also recently released a full feature DVD called Jaunt that you should check out.
