BUSA Slalom Entries

Posted 16y 4mth ago by Some Old Git
Posted by: Fingers
Hi Everyone,

The entry deadline for BUSA Slslom is this Thursday Morning. I need to know who wants to go ASAP.
Please sign up on the website, and if you are in a slalom division, please e-mail me. I will enter everyone who signs up before then into M/WK1 (kayak individual) and also into teams if the numbers are right.

BUSA Slalom is where you have to make it down an artificial white water course as fast as possible, whilst going between pairs of coloured poles, and trying not to hit them.
The trip is open to everyone, and the water is no harder than on any of the trips we've been on this term (except the Leam). All the other universities will be there, and there is a party, so it should be fun!
Please sign up NOW, otherwise you will not be guaranteed a place.

Sorry for the late notice everyone.

North Wales Intermediate Trip - Week 9

Posted by: Fingers
Hi everyone,

Signup is now open for our North Wales intermediate trip. End of week 9 (Friday 30th November --> Sunday 1st December)
It's an intermediate trip to an as yet undecided location in North Wales, with the possibility of camping/bunking - still looking for suitable accommodation.
This trip is open to anyone who is confident in their ability to brace - if you are not sure, talk to an exec member at a pool session/whenever. They will be able to help. We will be doing some more challenging rivers than on previous trips (weather permitting).

Details to follow when I know what's going on...

Scarfs and friends talk on kayaking abroad in pretty dam impressive places

Posted 16y 4mth ago by Some Old Git
Posted by: White Ninja
Firstly, yes his name is SCARF not chris eastabrook! So SCARF had an amazing summer of paddling in Tibet (lucky bastard) and is going to share the expereince with Warwick university and many other paddlers. There will also be presentations from two other experienced travellers who have seen and paddled alot of rivers. I believe it is Tom Parker and David Fairweather who you can probably google. Should be a nice friendly social and an oppertunity to see that kayaking is not restricted to a scrapy river usk in south wales, Ive seen the photos from the trip and they are pretty impressive. So heres the plan
WHERE:
Roots Social Building, Warwick Univeristy
WHEN: Thursday 29th November
TIME:  7:30 till 10:00pm
What to bring: Scarfs
Should be a wicked social, Im personally looking forward to it, and I may even remember it!
cheers

Something new...

Hmmm.... what shall we do for our next social... I know (mostly to shut madi up) Lets Go LaserQuest!

We're aiming to get there for about 3.40, so we can play at 4, its in Cov, road called Hales St, which is not too far from the West Orchards shopping centre. I haven't booked a slot, so it doesn't matter if we're later/earlier than planned. The games should cost a little less than 4 pounds if we have the whole arena to ourselves, or £4 on the dot if we dont. Then its really up to us how many games we have :-) The one sore point is that the centre can only take a maximum of 28 people, so can you post on the forum to let me know if your coming or not :-) It shouldn't be a problem though! We'll probably meet in the bar, as usual, about 3.40-4.00 pm ish, but I'll let you know proper tiumes sooner the time!

Happy Shooting
