Taming the Rapid - A Day Paddling With Rapid Media

Rapid Media came up to my place for an interview and to go paddling yesterday. It was bright and sunny but a little chilly; luckily for us the water was still in a liquid state. Scott worn his big puffy down jacket and toque and I had my cozy Tilley Endurables wool hat so we were happy and warm. I did do a bit of teaching and it went really well but Scott and Mike's eyes did bulge noticeably when I was up to my elbows in icy water demonstrating the circle stroke. I urged Scott to get that rail on the water which he did and he then proceeded to nail some of the fancier moves from my new Advanced Classic Solo Canoeing dvd. It was a really great way to spend the day and probably one of the last days of paddling this year. Thanks for the memories and good times fellas.
