Right so, vote on what colour you think is best, poll will be closed somewhere around 6 days from now!
Also, please say if you're interested in buying one and what size you are!
Should be around €30, hopefully a little bit cheaper, will have a better idea once I know numbers etc!
But yeah, fingers crossed if i have my act together and the people can make them quick enough we should have 'em in time for varsities!
Happy voting!! ;D
-
Large please!
-
I'll take a large, please!!
-
A small one for me, please and thank you. :)
Go PURPLE!
-
I'll take a large, please!!
Woops, sorry, I thought that was my post, still, no harm adding a please. ;) :D
-
a medium perhaps?
-
Cheers Ley, where are my manners? ;)
-
XL for me pls!
Will they be the same as last years or thicker?
-
Medium please :D
+I doubt I'm the only one to notice that "huge" somehow didn't make the shortlist...sorry Peegor ;)
-
medium please :)
purple or black and white!!!!
-
This white torso thing has grubbiness written all over it, but anyways
Ill take a medium please whichever colour!
-
The black and white does look really nice! Like yeah might get dirty kinda easy, but looks good me thinks!! See how the ol votes go sure! :)
-
Large le do thoil! blue or orange?? oh i like the idea of purple!ahhh can't decide! the auld brains ready to sleep!
oh....white + packing the trailer = disaster me thinks :)
-
I'll take a large please! Not making the same mistake as last year...
-
medium? or large... hmmm sure lets stick with medium! oooer purple, but they i'll go with anyfink! ;D
-
Go white and by the end of the year it'll be like a diary!
-
Purple. I'm incapable of not ruining white.
-
Go white and by the end of the year it'll be like a diary!
Like a diary? Ich verstehen sie nicht!
Black and white methinks.
-
Large one ;D
-
I'll take a Large please. Bring back orange! Although purple or blue sound ok too.
I have one of the pale grey ones from a couple of years ago and you literally wear it once and it's due for the wash again. Stay away from white.
-
As long as the purple isn't gaudy!!! I could tamper with the results... ;) I won't though.
-
We can't get purple. Galway had purple last year. The year we had orange/blue they had orange and blue the year before. The year we had green they had green the year before. I know ye haven't noticed that we are copying them but it is beginning to look bad.
If ye get human highlighter orange I’ll get two, one if it's anything else.
-
Large for me please gayness
-
Galway can preemptively copy us whenever they like - go purple! (Or green, I also like green if the purple falls through).
Edit: actually a small.
-
Small?
Do you have any details on the sizes?
-
Looks like purple is winning, just wondering what kind of purple...

If we're going with purple (which we should because royal blue, orange, black & white and Irish green are all shite), something like one of these two would be nice.
-
yeah if it's purple that ones definitely the best!
-
(http://image01.demandmade.com/IMGSRV/s/product_media/18485.jpg)
I want ones this colour ;D
-

-

"I believe it was a boaking accident"
-
Black and WHITE
MEDIUM for me
going back to Asho's post, what colour is the purple!!!!

-

hehe... gross.

The text on the back will be ' They don't teach you this in school ' courtesy of Rodge and Lynn. ;) :D
-
does it come with a demonstration?
-
PURPLE!!!! and medium please! ok we have way too many gingers for orange to work-sorry guys you'll look like walking traffic cones, and hmm yeah i think a white torso plus trailer screams bad news to me too
-
Why do people see the trailer in regards to the black and white one? You have other hoodies!!! Wear them on the trips! Negativity never got no one nowhere, no sir.

so your saying get the hoodies but don't wear them on river trips...??? in general don't wear them around canoe club! Right... 8)
-
Ha yeah, "they don't teach you this in school" will be the slogan on the hoodies! Came from me and rog discussing the merits of saying this after sex, and then roger had the genius idea of puting it on the hoodies! Not sure yet on the type of purple, but anoter thing, i think yellow would be best for the writing?!
-
yeah, if its purple yellow is best but please gosd don't let it be some gay shade of purple!

Low but do-able is better than that!
-
I say these for the guys
(http://blog.turntablelab.com/im/Ed%20Hardy%20Purple%20Dragon%20Skull%20Skeleton%20Hoodie.jpg)
These for the girls
(http://lib.store.yahoo.net/lib/yhst-96745417742161/Picture3107.jpg)
they shouldn't be too hard to arrange!
But if they are, this kind of purple
(http://girlsteenclothing.com/images/Fox-Hoodlum-Oasis-Hoodie-Purple.jpg)
and orange writing
(http://www.godomainshow.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/41.jpg)
That is all.
;D
-
Don't put orange text on a purple hoodie.
And please, please, for the love of god, if the hoodies do say 'low but doable' can we PLEASE not hyphenate it this time? that drove me fucking crazy!
-
As far as I know, the text will be what I put up, so you don't have to worry about hyphen's!!
-
how about a poll for the writing on the back?? just throwing it out there... :)
-
I put up a poll on that during my committee year; we got several good suggestions but in the end nobody could agree. Giving people a choice will just leave some people disappointed. Dictatorships are great at cutting down on dissent.

i do believe that quote was from Roger!
eh, ok thes colours are sounding gayer and gayer!
black and white sounds best in my opinion... no matter what clothes you wear to a canoe club trip they always get dirty. ( i know my last one was a few yrs ago but from doing it a whole year i know i never came home clean)
just dont do gay colours
-
Medium please :)
-
Ill take a medium please whichever colour!
HA!
good one, largie.
-
I'm in charge.....OF COURSE IT'S GOING TO BE GAY COLOURS!!!! Ha and yeah, it is a quote from roger...like I said... And screw you jer...this slogan is awwsome....it's like an onion with all the layers it has!!:p
-
Oh wow.... if we went with the leopard print i'd actually be tempted to buy ANOTHER hoody!!!
That slogan is pretty rubbish, come on, you guys can do better!!!! We're UCDCC it should be something sufficiently degrading if it's gonna be on our hoodies!!!!! ;D
-
I'm in charge.....OF COURSE IT'S GOING TO BE GAY COLOURS!!!!
I knew it!!
-
ORANGE!!!
Or this colour purple, come on Aengus, it wouldnt be you if it was a boring shade of purple!
(http://image01.demandmade.com/IMGSRV/s/product_media/18485.jpg)
Ill take a medium :-*
-
Ill take a medium please whichever colour!
HA!
good one, largie.
Cunt! Good one, extra-largie!
-

i thought you people were supposed to be jolly
-
Is there a website you're ordering them from so that wa could look at the specs?
-
Can the writing just be white? I think it woould stand out more than yellow or another colour.
-
I think yellow and purple are meant to complement each other, or something like that. Depending on the shade of purple white writing might be a bit harsh which I suppose would make it stand out. I don't really know or care.
-
Get me large one there Aengus
-
Large would be grand, thanks. :D
-
yellow and purple together are not a great combo tbh guys. just look at the wexford flag for proof! (sorry wexfordians but your flag is manky) how bout pink, blue or white writing? that would be awesome.
-
I've a joke about pink and purple.... your grip! That is all.
-
just thinkin about a slogan there.............
d'ya remember the dj soc (?) had a gig the other week called "suck my deck" ----
i think ya'll can get the kayakin reference there too.........
-
How about " We love to play in holes" or "We roll over and do it again" or "We love a good paddling" ;D
-
yeah paddling innuendos, what a great idea Finchy!!!
-
UCDCC getting people wet since 1976
Rubber, latex and an altenative lifestyle UCDCC
I'm Pat Patterson's love child
Some call it torture, some stress positions I call it kayaking
Cake and paddling all you need in life.
-
ill have a small please!! cheers...also we had an idea for the slogan but i cant remember it! aengus might know!
-
And screw you jer...this slogan is awwsome....it's like an onion with all the layers it has!!:p
layers of crap
-
And a design other than just the disco paddler? Someone paddling?
-
And a design other than just the disco paddler? Someone paddling?
VETO!
-
Whatever about the logo but the the Disco paddler is us!!!
-
And a design other than just the disco paddler? Someone paddling?
woah woah woah! no way, without the disco paddler where would we be in life, who would we be?
this is the problem with democracy, give them an inch they try to take a mile. so you restore order and next thing your up infront of the international criminal court!!!
-
Aswell as, not instead of. Disco paddler is always on the front of the hoodies, the last time they had a slogan on the back it was just the text of the slogan, this time I propose, for a bit of variety, we include a design.
-
I'm in favour of the disco paddler being the big logo, but the slogan:"They don't teach you this in school"? Come on now lads, its a bit lame! It means nearly nothing and could be about any club. It needs to be on some sort of kayaking theme!
Rubber, latex and an altenative lifestyle UCDCC

Cake and paddling all you need in life.
These ones were good.
"We roll over and do it again"
That's trinity's slogan. Can't be having that!
-
disco paddler is so awesome
i dont really care what the slogan is as long as we have him good and big ;)
-
You mean the one I liked was Trinity's? Can we not just have "Low but do-able"?
-
UCD is kinda known for the "Low but doable" slogan now.... no harm having it again ;)
Also nobody else is going to use it 8)
-
low but do able, is pretttttyyyy funny!
i would prefer that one
-
Yeh VETO using any other logo, cork have the skull and bones, wit have the viking etc etc gotta stay true to tradition!! I don't mind what slogan we use really but I do like Low but doable!
-
The disco paddler was done by one Mr. Paul Power and there were two versions the one we use and one where the paddle is held in the lower hand. It is a copy of the saturday night fever logo but modified. Yes we are known for the disco paddler, our team in the dublin polo league was disco paddlers as such I don't think there is a need to rebrand, we don't want a new coke reapeat. "Low but doable" no hyphen needed, might and should changed but don't touch the disco paddler.
-
Don't worry the disco paddler won't be touched
-
It's okay to touch the disco paddler and whatever megan and carla do to him the privacy of a studio is just fine, just don't try making a new icon when the old is just dandy. Don't know why I'm getting involved as I rarely purchase hoodies from the club at all.
-
I love 'low but doable'! I know it's been done before but it is definitely the best one. And, yes, yes, that's what I said.
-
Any chance I could get a club tank top/wife beater? I wanna show off the guns when I'm loading the trailer. *BANG, BANG*
-
Actually Nuala that year there were two versions, one just had text on the back, one had the disco paddler and text.
Kieran, I've never seen the disco paddler with the paddle in his lower hand but it sounds kinda crap...
anything to be said for my old suggestion of "Brace yourself"? It seemed popular (if divisive) first time around before that debate descended into chaos. :laugh:
-
"brace yourself" is great!
some of the team names from the table quiz in kerry would make awesome slogans for hoodies aswell,
"weir deadly" for example.
-
ha, just noticed, im old after 4 months in UCDCC.....
i duno what that makes everyone who has been in the club for years?....
bleedin ANCIENT wha?
-
i think the "low but doable" or the "they don't teach you this in school" are better!!!
the others aren't so subtle! and i just don't really like them! :)
-
"they don't teach you this in school" are better!!!
the others aren't so subtle! and i just don't really like them! :)
Eoghan, this one's so bloody subtle that its got absolutly nothing to do with paddling! It's an in-joke! It's no good for varsities!
Low but doable
-
Eoghan, this one's so bloody subtle that its got absolutly nothing to do with paddling! It's an in-joke! It's no good for varsities!
Low but doable
i agree...! :)
if everyone is so happy with low but doable, you should keep it then! ??? ;D
-
what??? its too do with paddling too!! when the rivers low but still doable!!??
-
I'm just wondering how you intend to have these ready for varsities, have you ever delt with printing shops? Dear god they can be slow.
-
Magic.
-
what??? its too do with paddling too!! when the rivers low but still doable!!??
he meant the hey don't teach you this in school one ya retard!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
printing shops?? :o
but but i thought you just cut the discopaddler and letters into potatoes and get some poster paint and print it onto the hoodies??.... :-\
thats the oldskool way of printing things anyway. all ya need is a sack of potatoes, some paint and some really eager children....
and its free
child labour doesnt count if their having fun...
-
And their fingers are small and nimble, they also can fit easily among large machinery. If they get killed it's not like you invested a huge amount of money in their trainer.
-
How about we all just except what we get. You don't hear the kids in Africa complaining about the text on the back of their umm.... rags.

they probably are making the hoodies were gona be getting :(
-
I do love ‘low but doable’ but on the other hand it has been done!!
We went through trying to pick a slogan a few years back but couldn’t decide. Here are a ‘few’ of the ones we came up with the last time we brain-stormed:
Big Boats are a bandaid
Nothing’s too big
UCDCC = lowest common denominator
Weils will Weils will rock you
UCDCC - subtle and vaguley attractive
UCDCC – obnoxious and really hot
Brace yourself
If it fits its meant to be
Who dares swims
UCDCC (Insert witty slogan here)
UCDCC Don't F*** Up
UCDCC 'rent a crowd'
that's a paddling
Shut your bung hole!
UCDCC. Wet suits!
UCDCC The people your mother warned you about
Aint' no dickshunaries on-a-river.
Moisture is the essence of wetness, and wetness is the essence of beauty.
when your born you have the face god gave you, when you die you have the face UCDCC gave you
less thinkin, more drinkin!
Shouting 'slogan!' doesn't make it a slogan
UCDCC: Boof!
UCDCC: Breaking out since we were teenagers
UCDCC: We don't get out of bed for less than 1000cumecs
UCDCC: We don't leave the bar for less than 1000cumecs
Well done!
UCDCC: Creeking Havoc Across the Country
UCDCC where rescue is waiting
"check yourself before you wreck yourself"
"too posh to paddle"
"when the juices are flowin, you better get goin"
I rather be huck'd than fucked?
If found return to Ucd canoe club.
Drink more drink faster.
Creekers are satan's slippers.
First the club then the world.
EXPERTS IN WETNESS!
Never let he truth get in the way of a good story.
There has got to be more to life than just being really, really, really, ridiculously good-looking.
I can Derelick my own balls, thank you!
For a second there I thought someone was going to be reading out eugugoly!
They're break dance fighting.
It's a walk-off!
Listen to your friend Billy Zane, he's a cool dude!

If you do not rock and roll, you rock and swim.
UCDCC - Shallow, but whatever floats your boat!

It's all in the hips
PLf not what you think
I lost my diginity and all the club gave me was a hoodie
Slippery when wet(this has been done)
Your Ma

Spend 5 days of every month in heavy flow. (alternatively: spend 5 days of every month in heavy flow, until you're about 50)
UCDCC will give you a stroke. (it works on THREE levels!)
I still like the inscription some of us briefly talked about putting on the boathouse door, "Abandon Hope All Ye Who Enter Here", but bear in mind that on a hoodie that's going to be right over your ass.
and I believe it might have been killian who said "tight but screwable"

-
How can you possibly say that they don't teach you this in school isn't related to kayaking so it's bad and yet want that one?!
-
they dont teach you this in school is lame. there I said it.
-
yeah it is sorta bent...i want the ucdcc will give you a stroke one! and dont do the low but doable one its so old and boring!
-
medium/large ish for me!
8)
as ali said :
"I rather a paddle in front of me than a frontal lobotamy "
they dont teach you this in school is lame. there I said it.
i agree.
any of others are fine.
will we have these for the invarsities?
-
Doubtful, took us about 3 months to get the last set!
-
how about "They Don't Teach You This In Prison"? It's confusing, and if you think about it too much, or not enough, it might be funny.
-
yeah it is sorta bent...i want the ucdcc will give you a stroke one! and dont do the low but doable one its so old and boring!
[/quote
no offence, but how is that quote "Low but Do-able" old and boring?

-
How about the committee select it?
-
GET BENT LEIGHTON!!!!

Well said Ali, Think the polls been open "a day" now, get thee to the printers!
