I was at Thirsk Swimming Pool last week taking part in a photo shoot for some publicity the Council wants for running the new BCU Paddle Power Syllabus. At the end I was asked to do a trick or two.... hmmm... I thought at the time.... but I decided to have a go at an "APOLLO" and as the photo shows, it could not have gone better as I managed to get the beauty vertical... and it gets better.... as I rotated down on my edge, the front sliced into the water and with the aid of another reverse sweep, I spun it round to do a full 360 degree cartwheel!!! Yeeeeeha! I will be dining on this for months! I then did it again to prove it was no fluke!
I didnt post this just to gloat (much) but to say that I managed to get the Council's publicity officer to say a little about Hambleton Paddlers canoe club, and gave Ian's phone number and the website. It is going in the Hambleton news, which goes out to all 38,000 hambleton residents, and could get us some new members. It goes out this week and the timing could not be better. Fingers crossed.... if your phone rings a lot Ian.... sorry lol.
