paddling etiquette
Watching the last few div1 races I see a few things I thought should be raised. 1. Doing official practice means do a race practice, not repeats on tricky gates, why do some paddlers and their parents think differently and repeating gates is okay when most paddlers do full run 2. Why swear after the...

Re: Lower Divisions (3&4) - How Could Things be Improved?
Whatever changes are suggested, focus on it being fun. If u loose it at that level then div 2, and divv 1 will be painful and you will no doubt drop out
Control the controlable, and enjoy it

Re: 2016 ACM - Portable Points Proposal
Great Post! Think about the impact of people who would previously judged but now padding - i assume (dangerous - i know) that some people wanted experience of bigger water but knew they would not get the previous 40% result for 1,000 points & will now want to race not judge. This may impact on avail...

Re: Div1 2016 - someone may not be able to count
Of course c2 and vets are missing from above calcs, a number of demotions from div1 may qualify for and paddle as vets next season so vets numbers may increase too

Re: Editorial: Portable Points
Is there any reason why under portable points, we cannot have Div 2/3 events? If there are multiple events then there will be no preference for paddlers entering in the higher division - Races may become full faster but its possibly a solution to the issues around lower division organisers comments...

Re: Editorial: Portable Points
A few considerations that may have been overlooked: 1. There are still a similar number of races in all divisions in 2016 vs this year so organisers are either on board or are making this format viable 2. Paddlers who don't want to paddle up will have opportunity in their own division and can progre...
