Last edition I promised more of Jon Walpoles excellent paddling shots ... well here they are! For those of you who don't know Jon, he lives, works and plays in the state of Oregon in the United States. We can forgive Jon for not living in Australia - I suppose everyone can't live in God's land, but after having look at where he has been paddling - WOW - I think we need to get over and get out with those good people from the US! Jon gets around, and his photos capture the love of paddling and the sea that is a common bond to all of us - no matter what part of the planet we live in. Now here you go ..... Jon Walpole......

Greenland kayaking champion, Maligiaq Padilla, still laughing shortly after the helicopter challenge in which the pilot hunted us down and tried (but failed) to capsize us. We survived by lying in the water and using a skulling support stroke on the windy side. Hah! Which side was that?!
