Fluid Kayaks - Team Blog

As I'm settling in in British Columbia I am browsing through pictures of our trip here.

Well now you could say: Right, why BC right now, no boating there, eh?

And fair enough it's true. Pretty frozen up around here.

Unlike Hog's Back in Ottawa in December...

John Rathwell took this series of me running this downtown gem.

Makes visits to the big city for very official matters way more enjoyable!

There's a bunch more to be found right HERE on John's site. Check it out!

Thanks bud!

Sorry, distracted.

Back to the moving to BC.

In winter.

Well, we brought it all. The two of us, 6 boats, 8 paddles, snowboards, skis, bikes and everything else.

Quite the rig, isn't it?

So yep: We've come to stay!

It has been fun on the Ottawa for the last five years but sometimes a change is needed.

So we're setting up base in the Kootenays, Southern Interior BC.

And well, this is what the kayaking looks like right now.

But can you imagine that water flowing? Or rather dropping?

I am pretty stoked to be here!

And while I am waiting for the spring to come so I can check out all those amazing creeks around here I am pretty sure that I could be happy for a while with deep powder, freezing cold play boat sessions on the Columbia River, hot chocolates and saunas.

So there you go.

That's why.
