Best kayaking websites
« on: September 15, 2011, 00:25:57 »
What are the best websites for kayaking related/relevant information that you use?

For example, websites with good or useful information about:

-weather
-releases
-training
-coaching
-gear/equipment
-kayaking humour
-kayaking news
-competitions
-famous kayaking personalities
...or anything else kayaking related that's worth a look!

Well, obviously irishwhitewater.com and http://www.irishfreestyle.com/forum
http://www.met.ie/sat/full-ir.asp - you can see the clouds coming across the atlantic!
http://www.met.ie/latest/rainfall_radar.asp a brilliant tool.
http://www.accuweather.com/ukie/index.asp gives phigures on projected rainphall, but isn't always accurate.
http://www.canoepolo.com/forum/7-ireland - Irish canoe polo
donedeal.ie and adverts.ie occasionally have interesting kayaks
http://www.irishmarathoncanoeing.com/ race notices and buy & sell, iph you're into that sort oph thing.
i-canoe.com
http://www.brookbankcanoes.co.uk/ - they have an outlet in phermanagh
http://www.dublincanoepolo.ie/
http://hydronet.epa.ie/maps_W_0.htm?entryparakey=W could be really interesting, but phar phrom live inphormation.
