Hi Guys Bear in mind that you don't get promoted on two results. You need five good ones, or three wins. None of the four who polished off their promotions at Llandysul got up on three wins, so all of them had at least three good results on other courses. That must make them pretty good paddlers on...

I think John is right: there is no specific rule that says the section judge must record the highest penalty. But it is usual (UK) practice, the assumption being that a dodgy decision will be protested. This might seem biased, but so are protests - have you ever protested to get a penalty put on, r...

It will probably depend on the course and the paddler's weight and size, but my money is on 3.6 to 3.7m. Shorter than that, and you start to lose boat speed - which is as important as quick turning unless you drift your slaloms. Know this formula? Max displacement speed (knots) = 1.4 x square root o...
