Another weekend paddling white water. Two rapids, the wave at Brattland and creeking in Vålån.

We arrived late, and some decided to do some night kayaking which turned out to be quite photogenic in the summer night light. That’s one of the few big advantages living a bit up north, the summer nights really never gets dark.

Saturday afternoon there was a competition, Master of the Wave. Simple rules: 1. The one who stays last on the wave after the time is out wins. 2. No fighting with the paddles or ripping off the spraydeck. All else fair…

Then we did some creeking too.

For quite some time me and a friend has talked about learning white water kayaking. An opportunity presented itself and off we went. Turned out to be very difficult, but loads of fun. Will be a while until I reach the level of the people in the photos!
