I'm out - working all weekend !

Peter O'Sullivan:
I'd like to go and pass on whatever knowledge/skill I can to next years freestyle team. I would prefer not to be the only one paddling. It would be a pity for the summer to pass by and for me to be the only clud member to paddle at Clifden.

Eoghan:
Right well I'm interested but not 100% sure I can go since I may have committed to something else. But if we can get even a small group to go I'll do my best to be there (I won't have a car so any driver's out there wanna go  :) ).
I'm genuinely thinking that if I don't use my playboat in some way before the end of summer I'm selling it

Garbhan:
Here's the original if anyone didn't see it.

--- Quote from: Garbhan Gorman on July 31, 2013, 00:19:07 ---So I texted a few people about going this weekend without realising the levels would be too low but Clifden will be running at a great levels on Friday evening the 9th, twice on Saturday the 10th and again on the morning of the Sunday. Note that the hole forms about 2 hours before Galway Harbour High tide times given here.

More information about the feature can be found here = Clifden Hole

I will be driving from Dublin on Friday as I plan to rent the Monstar from I-Canoe so I can go from the boat house if people want. I will have space for 3 other people and their 3 playboats!

There's camping in Clifden Village.

If you don't have a playboat don't fret, the club have a few and I-Canoe rent some as well for about €40 a week. List of kayaks I-Canoe rent

Here's a video of Clifden Hole if you're wondering what it looks like

And here is a Video of BentFest from last summer which has UCD paddlers at Clifden.

So do you really need anymore convincing??  :P
