Woah, I wouldn't rule yourself out like that at all!
As a Limerick native, are you able to get on the wave?

oisin.mchugh

Yeah I can but I'd say that extent of it haven't been on gower since before my leaving cert

Douchier

Nah bru, go for it.

Even if you haven't been there in years you've still got much more experience there than probably all of us except peter.

Actually, it'd be worth going to I-Canoe or Great Outdoors to demo one!
Gower has no rocks or places to damage a boat, so it'd be a low risk demo.
If you picked it up the day before you wouldn't even have to detour on the way down.

i also believe (correct me if im wrong!!) but doesnt i canoe (or possibly GOD's cant remember which) now have a new set of boats that can be rented?? think i mighta seen it on fb?
might be worth looking into if you cant get a demo....

Chunderdragon

way ahead of ye! have a superstar booked from icanoe for the week of the 26th -2nd, cant wait to give it a proper go! wanted to try a jitsu, but no demos yet :(

i dont really think i could afford a trip down to limerick just at the minute guys guys. is anyone else in the same boat?

Chunderdragon

So is this happening? I can drive down.

A car, maybe two cars can stay in mine on Saturday night. It'll be cool. Would need more notice than just a decision on Saturday though.
