No way...say it ain't so...-3 already >:( Good baby face will have left...

Can't make it this weekend, bc a former paddling buddy is getting married (ian)...still my friend, but what was he thinking to get married on such a hot, sunny day!!

Ahh...the joys of getting run over by a raft - well it took me over 10 years...

JN and Christian: What time are you guys planning to be there Friday night?  I'll leave after work and probably get there around 6:30 or so... If you guys are planning to be there much earlier I'll meet you at the Lorne and put up the tent afterwards.

About the same time!

I wanted to do Billy's clinic but Pushbutton on a Summer Saturday at 2pm sounds painful!

Id rather wait for a weeknight 6pm and fully enjoy my session type thing rather than pay 30-40$ to catch the wave 10-15 times and wait in the lineup the rest of the time! But thats just me! :P

See yall on the river this weekend!

Hi

The down river trip from McCoys will eventually hit Pushbutton.
Apparently there are 4 participants that Billy will be constantly reminding to do certain things. Yah I have taken a clinic with Billy. 

Here's a tip... watch and listen.
Unless you are trying to do loops, cartwheels, blunts ... you can garner plenty of knowledge by watching your fellow CdBer and listening to Billy
cuz the same errors are made by most people when learning to surf or do flat spins.

Sounds good to me!  I was also a bit interested in the Billy Harris session - not sure if the two (run the Main and Billy Harris session) can be combined or not?  So I guess I'd rather run the Main.

hi

Looking for like minded paddlers for the Main Channel who rather sleep in a bit, drive up Saturday morning and hopefully miss most of the raft traffic at McCoys.
Ever once in while you put on at prime time only to see your fellow boaters get run over by a raft. I would assume we will be on the river just after the crack of noon. Plenty of time to get Push Button to have Billy Harris constantly tell you to look up stream, turn your head ... and what not.

Therefore
Meet time: 11:30 am to set up shuttle
Meet place: River Run ... Paddlers' meadow or whereever the rest of the CdBers are hanging about or pitched their tents
Channel: Main
Purpose: Play

Driving up Sat. ..camping and maybe off to a cottage on Sunday.

Larry
