Galway

What a great weekend.Last saturday morning a group of us from Ul headed up to the west rodeo in tuam where I Judged and also competed in the 'pro' class.I wanted to get some more competition experience in my c1 before nationals so I thought I better compete in my c1 against the k1 heads.In the end I finished 6th but I was happy.Fair play to bowsie for running a great fun event.

Pro class winner,event organiser and all around nice guy brian cahill.

The other judges and I looking all serious and hopefully doing a good job.

plugging for a loop.

And We're Off

So the first county off the list is clare.I started off 32cc with a spot of surf kayaking and wave ski surfing.Conor and Bredin and I headed out to lahinch and caught a bit of surf around spanish point.The first day we headed out to spanish point beach. The surf was small but clean so I opted to take my waveski out.Had a great little session with conor in his surf boat wayne timmons on a short board and fitz and his girlfriend on longboards.Just 5 friends sharing waves on different surf craft on a sunny day without any agro.I'm beggining to get the hang of this whole waveski lark and I finally feel comfortable on my ski.

After lunch I headed off for a bit of sight seeing with the guys and we checked out the clifs of moher.

After the sun had set we headed back to waynes b and b where he kindly put us up for the night.the next day we headed out surfing at spanish point reef where we had a great session, I even managed to get covered over in the surf kayak.

Back in limerick

Finally back in limerick after a couple of weeks at home paddling in the midlands.I spent the day hangin out with my friend conor and some of the other ul gang and doing a spot of some longboard skateboarding.Haven't actually got on the water since new years so still zero counties paddled in this year but im heading surfing tomorrow so 32cc begins with clare.
