Forum Name Charley
Stalkbook Name Charley Smallwood
Nicknames Busted, Rescue Bitch
Started Paddling Sept 09 (when I started Uni, so no excuses of never having tried kayaking before!)
Boat of Choice Anything I actually fit in, I'm unable to be picky with a 35" inside leg measurement, however, for all those haters (Haydock) - Pyranha Stretch!
Favourite River Lower Guisane (French Alps), UK wise - The Clough in massive water
Drink of Choice Milky milky tea, people frown when you just ask for a mug of warm milk so I have to have it tea flavoured.
Words of Wisdom 'Never follow the Frenchman's line'
'Never run a rapid just because your girlfriend did it the day before'
'You're not pushing yourself unless you're rolling or swimming'
'We were all there at one point, just put a brave face on and get back in your boat'
Qualifications We'll just have to see how much this position effects my degree.... then we'll talk about qualifications...
Other Comments Stop faffing around reading about kayaking and get out and do it!
