Hi All

It has been a while. Mind you a uk group didn't seem particularly
useful on the other side of the world.

How's this for starters?

Perhaps we should be asking what attributes are required to be the
best river runner (or playboater, slalomist, raft guide, sprinter, sea
kayaker etc.) you can be?

I'll start with 2 points I consider important for a river runner:

1) Ability to focus on the right line and not the nasty consequences.

2) A measured but reactionary paddling style.

3) A good knowledge of ones paddling ability and its limits, and knowing
how for to push those limits?

Look at the possibilities, don't worry about the limitations.
