Come vi avevo anticipato nello scorso weekend si è tenuto all'argentario l'esame del Corso Istruttori Sottocosta 2009. Tutti e 9 i candidati hanno superato l'esame e fanno ora parte a tutti gli effetti dei tecnici Sottocosta. Personalmente tengo molto a fare le mie congratulazioni a tutti i nuovi istruttori e in particolare al buon Gotta, il terzo da destra. A mio avviso la classe del 2009 è senz'altro da considerare la migliore di sempre! (... a parte quella del 2004 ovviamente ;-) ) In bocca al lupo ragazzi e buon lavoro!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;_________________________________________________&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s1600-h/Union+Jack.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; FLOAT: left; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882542862128146" border="0" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s200/Union+Jack.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;During the past weekend took place the Sottocosta's exam for Sea Kayak Instructors. All the nine applicants passed succesfully the exam and became members of the Sottocosta family. I think the 2009 has been the best course since ever, all the guys are skilled and good teachers and, most of all, they became a team in a very short time. I hope this will help0 them in their future. I would like to wish to all the new Instructors a big good luck and my best compliments for their news status, expecially to my dear friend Marco; the third from the right. See you on the water guys!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s1600-h/Union+Jack.jpg"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7882899187726324867-449106300733306987?l=larioseakayak.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/feeds/449106300733306987/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7882899187726324867&amp;postID=449106300733306987' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/449106300733306987'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/449106300733306987'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/2009/10/easy-company.html' title='The Easy Company'/><author><name>Maurizio</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10940155211315526880</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='25' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/Svr5CltdKoI/AAAAAAAAAMo/eVzgAnGAfks/S220/maurizio.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/SuAMtJdKDzI/AAAAAAAAAL8/FpCsAoeOkLI/s72-c/Istruttori+Sottocosta+2009.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7882899187726324867.post-8949413566851976548</id><published>2009-10-12T14:08:00.002+02:00</published><updated>2009-10-12T14:15:35.924+02:00</updated><title type='text'>A brief update</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s1600-h/tricolore.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; FLOAT: left; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882134840235010" border="0" alt="" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s200/tricolore.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Come avrete notato non siamo più molto attivi ne io ne il buon Gotta.

Il tutto non è casuale, purtroppo non si può fare sempre quello che si vorrebbe e ci sono dei momenti in cui è necessario scegliere. Questo è quallo che ho fatto. Ma non è solo per questo che mi sto allontanando da questo sport. Quando ero un ragazzo scorrazzavo per il Lario in lungo e in largo, apprezzando davvero con passione ogni momento che passavo sul mio Lago. Quelle rare occasioni in cui riuscivo ad andare al mare erano poi giorni da ricordare! (e che ricordo ancora!). Oggi è tutto diverso, con il tempo sono riuscito a comprarmi tutta l'attrezzatura che ho sempre sognato... e che adesso non ho + il tempo di usare! Il tempo e la voglia... mi trovo sempre più immerso in cose che devo fare, corsi che devo sostenere, manifestazioni a cui bisogna andare; forse è solo un mio momento no, forse è un mio modo sbagliato di vedere le cose: ma quello che vedo non mi piace.&lt;br /&gt;Non so ancora che cosa ne sarà di questo blog, devo parlarne con Marco e quando prenderemo una decisione la leggerete qui. Non penso di scrivere qui nei prossimi giorni, e probabilmente nemmeno nelle prossime settimane. Comunque buona estate a tutti e grazie per avermi letto nei mesi passati.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Maurizio&lt;br /&gt;_________________________________________________&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s1600-h/Union+Jack.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; FLOAT: left; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882542862128146" border="0" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s200/Union+Jack.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Guys i think i have lost the grip, i lost my motivation, the passion in Sea Kayaking. It seems incredible even to me! I had been really fond of this sport, i spent a quite big amount of money buying all the kit i have always dremt about, but now i don't feel any joy using it. When i was yunger i had a scrap of a kayak, an old wooden blade (of course of the wrong size) and a really a few pieces of a normal kit. But i really had a great time paddling! Nowerdays everything is different, i have no more the same feelings when i paddle and is for this reason that i think i will give up blogging, and probably paddling... at least for a while.&lt;br /&gt;I would like to thank all of you that showed so much interest for this blog in the past years.&lt;br /&gt;Bye!&lt;br /&gt;Maurizio&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7882899187726324867-3251010608564028192?l=larioseakayak.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/feeds/3251010608564028192/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7882899187726324867&amp;postID=3251010608564028192' title='6 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/3251010608564028192'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/3251010608564028192'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/2009/05/i-give-up.html' title='I give up...'/><author><name>Maurizio</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10940155211315526880</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='25' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/Svr5CltdKoI/AAAAAAAAAMo/eVzgAnGAfks/S220/maurizio.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s72-c/tricolore.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>6</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7882899187726324867.post-2631860496231261582</id><published>2009-05-19T14:26:00.011+02:00</published><updated>2009-05-19T14:39:05.599+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Anglesey Adventure /2</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s1600-h/tricolore.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882134840235010" style="margin: 0px 10px 10px 0px;

Da notare lo svuotamento di una canadese da un fluvialino, per la felicità di Tatiana che è ora piena di lividi!&lt;br /&gt;Lunedi riposo? ovviamente no, sembra quasi di essere a naja! Esame 3 stelle B.C.U., con mare 4 e surf sulle onde :D&lt;br /&gt;Oggi abbiamo iniziato il corso 4 stelle, con salvataggi, eskimi e rientri in mare "agitato" (molto agitato!)&lt;br /&gt;In serata compiti a casa: programmazione di un'escursione, tenendo conto di tutti i fattori di rischio e di sicurezza, con una fisarmonica che suona qui nella stanza comune del centro.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;p.s.

LORO hanno voluto ringraziare NOI!&lt;br /&gt;Noi che abbiamo usufruito delle canoe del circolo, che abbiamo ostruito la passerella di ingresso al canale per oltre un'ora, chje abbiamo mangiato tutto (TUTTO!) quello che hanno cucinato per noi al casone (spaghetti cozze e vongole, sarde in saor, pane veneto e dolci fatti in casa, vino a fiumi e caffè finale già zuccherato in tazzina, una vera ricercatezza!)... &lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_HinWzkZl9ZY/SMoXuZr_hII/AAAAAAAAAFI/ts62KiwSHag/s1600-h/RIMG0178.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5245030801963189378" style="FLOAT: right;

Il fine settimana scorso mi ha visto impegnato con alcuni a mici nell'ODEC, One Day Elba Challenge. Un mini raduno per pochi intimi ideato e organizzato per anni dal Mitico Luciano Belloni. Da quest'anno toccherà al vostro pertpetrare questa importante tradizione. Che dirvi d'altro? 4 matti, 93km, 8 soste 22 ore per un esperienza bellissima anche se fisicamente veramente impegnativa. Ci tengo a riportare i nomi dei 3 compagni di questa avventura: Tatiata Cappucci (direttamente dalle Highlands) Andrea Bolis e Andrea Bresil.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Un grazie speciale a Luciano per aver reso possibile tutto questo e a Giorgio Nesca per averci salutato alla partenza e accolto all'arrivo!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;_________________________________________________&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s1600-h/Union+Jack.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882542862128146" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s200/Union+Jack.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;After a long period of silence i'm back to post on the blog. The past weekend with few  friends we did the ODEC, One Day Elba Challenge. This is a very small meeting of sea kayaking addicted that takes place in the Elba Island in the month of july. It had been organized for 4 years by the great Luciano Belloni, and now it's up to me to go on with the tradition of this event. What else should i say? 4 mad kayakers, 93km, 8 stops and 22hours to complete this beatifoul and devasting experience. I would like to write the names  of the friends that paddled with me this experience: Tatiana Cappucci (directly from the Highlands) Andrea Bolis and Andrea Bresil.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;A special thanks to Luciano Bellini that made this happen and to Giorgio Nesca. He saw the beginning and the end of this tremendous paddle.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7882899187726324867-6415343042029598602?l=larioseakayak.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/feeds/6415343042029598602/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7882899187726324867&amp;postID=6415343042029598602' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/6415343042029598602'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/6415343042029598602'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/2008/07/we-can-be-heroes-just-for-one-night.html' title='We can be heroes, just for one night.'/><author><name>Maurizio</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10940155211315526880</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='25' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/Svr5CltdKoI/AAAAAAAAAMo/eVzgAnGAfks/S220/maurizio.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp3.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/SGtxyq6METI/AAAAAAAAAHU/SVwDhgV4yPE/s72-c/ODEC+2008.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7882899187726324867.post-5644404084236084147</id><published>2008-06-29T22:52:00.002+02:00</published><updated>2008-06-29T23:01:30.435+02:00</updated><title type='text'>O.D.E.C.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s1600-h/tricolore.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882134840235010" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s200/tricolore.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In queste ore un manipolo di valorosi capitanati da Maurizio (in quanto nuovo organizzatore della manifestazione) sta prendendo parte alla ODEC: One Day Elba Challenge.

E si che di cose da dire ne avrei anche... l'incombente ODEC, il bellissimo DVD Rough Water Paddling, l'idea di andare ad Anglesy... pazienza, tutto questo dovrà aspettare. Sto cercando di fare del mio meglio per dare il massimo supporto "agli Scozzesi" ;-). A essere onesti di supporto non ne hanno proprio bisogno, però cerco di mantenermi in contatto, di aggiornare il blog e di mandargli SMS con la meteo per quanto è necessario. Voi comunque rimanete sintonizzati ;-).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;_________________________________________________&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s1600-h/Union+Jack.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882542862128146" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s200/Union+Jack.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Guys i'm still here... but in this period i relly have no time to post even on my blog. It's even a pity because there are several things i'd like to post about: the next Odec, the beatifoul DVD Rough Water Paddling, Anglesy... all these things must wait. At the moment i'm trying to give all my support to my "scottish" friends. I have to be honest, they don't need much support, but i try to stay in contact and update the blog every day (most of the times), for the rest i send them the weather forecast when the need it.

La grande notizia è che il satanico Gottazord, di sua spintanea volontà parteciperà al suddetto corso!&lt;br /&gt;Un manipolo di impavidi supporter è già pronto alla partenza per sostenerlo durante questa dura prova!

Purtroppo oggi non riesco a scrivere un post veramente descrittivo di questa tre giorni.... spero nel prezioso supporto di Tatiana per questo ;-).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;La vera vacanza è iniziata giovedì sera a Legnano, in piscina. Li un manipolo di valorosi kayaker marini ha tentato di resistere allo strapotere dei fluviali... che al termine di un confronto abbastanza maschio hanno prevalso, seppur di stretta misura. Dopo l'abituale sosta in birreria partiamo alla volta della nostra meta: l'arcipelago delle Porquerolles!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Ci fermiamo poco prima del confine francese per qualche ora di sonno, al risveglio sosta in autogrill e relativa colazione luculliana. Il trasferimento richiede poi ancora qualche ora (e numerosi salassi delle autostrade francesi!!!) comunque verso mezzogiorno finalmente riusciamo a imbarcarci. Nel pomeriggio non facciamo molti km in kayak, la stanchezza si fa sentire e una volta sbarcati sull'isola di Porquerolle decidiamo di non ripartire. La serata prosegue con il sottoscritto che piglia a calci ricci e la gentilissima Tatiana che tenta di porre rimedio estraendo le nuove spine che fanno bella mostra di se nel mio piede destro. Risultato? tentando di anestetizzarmi finisco ubriaco come un cane (ma sul serio!) e le spine rimangono al loro posto dopo una serie di turpiloqui degni di nota!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Il giorno dopo oltre ai postimi di una bella sbornia dobbiamo sorbirci un poì di maretta, io stimo vento e mare forza4. Visto che la meteo non è delle migliori decidiamo di non proseguire verso l'isola successiva dell'arcipelago (distante 8km) e completiamo il periplo dell'isola + grande piantando il campo nella spiaggia alle spalle del faro a Est. Domenica ripartiamo alla volta delle macchine, facciamo una capatina sulla costa verso ovest (veramente bella) e sbarchiamo infine verso le 18 a giens. Pizza e birra insieme e poi via! chi a montare il campo per l'ultima notte (IN CAMPEGGIO!!) e chi a rimettersi in viaggio verso casa.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Che dire? Senz'altro una bella gita, però a mio avviso non la più bella fatta in kayak negli ultimi anni.&lt;br /&gt;per chi fosse interessato alle foto...&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/larioseakayak/Porquerolles25Aprile2008"&gt;http://picasaweb.google.com/larioseakayak/Porquerolles25Aprile2008&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;P.S.: Ho apprezzato come non mai la mia meravigliosa e nuoverrima Werner IKELOS! veramente una meraviglia!!!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Domani mattina di buon ora riparto per le porquerolles per una 4 giorni di barca a vela!

We had great fun at the Porquerolles. We did an early start on thursday night and spent three days paddling around the islands. I have to tell the truth: i strongly prefer the Maddalena Archipelago, north-east in Sardinia. But Porquerolles has been a very nice place to spent some days. We always camped on the beach but couldn't reach the island of Port Cross due to a moderate sea; in my mind not very comfortable for all the mates. The water was still quite cold, so we had to slow down our usual roll-fewer ;-).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;What else? Have a look to the photoes! Marco added his too.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s1600-h/Union+Jack.jpg"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7882899187726324867-4078750231104031895?l=larioseakayak.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/feeds/4078750231104031895/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7882899187726324867&amp;postID=4078750231104031895' title='2 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/4078750231104031895'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/4078750231104031895'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/2008/04/porquerolles-andata-e-ritorno.html' title='Porquerolles - andata e ritorno'/><author><name>Maurizio</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10940155211315526880</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='25' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/Svr5CltdKoI/AAAAAAAAAMo/eVzgAnGAfks/S220/maurizio.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/SBbmc6KZcFI/AAAAAAAAAGQ/mknaJ2D7XZY/s72-c/porquerolles.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7882899187726324867.post-2586778678862884960</id><published>2008-04-24T18:16:00.002+02:00</published><updated>2008-04-24T18:19:26.466+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Ready to action!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s1600-h/tricolore.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882134840235010" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s200/tricolore.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ragazzi con il solito sconvolgente, incredibile, indecente ritardo sono (siamo) in procinto di partire per le porquerolle (spero si scriva così...) dove trascorreremo tre spettacolari e selvaggi giorni di campeggio nautico.

(dalla foto non l'avreste mai detto vero?) La buona compagnia, sia degli amici che della mia nuova e BELLISSIMA Werner Ikelos (che potete ammirare in qualche foto) sono stati un mix azzeccatissimo per una domenica veramente spassosa. Siamo partiti da Maccagno per una breve escursione verso i castelli di Cannero, devo dire sempre molto belli da visitare. Abbiamo poi proseguito verso la solita spiaggetta dove abbiamo mangiato qualche cosa... ovviamente lo "spirito fluviale" del buon Max ha avuto il sopravvento e non è riuscito a resistere a una improvvisata discesa di un corso d'acqua a dir poco striminzito, non si può comunque dire che la sua Vulcano si sia comportata poi male! ...ma sarà il violino o il violinista?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5191808079944153714" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/SA0B8PsS-nI/AAAAAAAAAGE/6LM2Jt_Gi4s/s400/maxx.jpg" border="0" /&gt;Comunque dopo questa breve escursione fluviale procedo a un frugale panino per non appesantirmi e approfittare della presenza di un favoloso Nordkapp H2O sulla spiaggia. Il kayak in questione a mio avviso è senz'altro tra i migliori mai realizzati, un vero cavallo di razza! Forse anche migliore del mio Q-Boat... ma questa è un altra storia.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Alla fine del "test" non so se per gioco o sul serio mi viene proposto di provare un Vulcano della Rainbow. Bè... evidentemente era il grande giorno di questo SitOnTop, che dopo il brivido del fiume doveva provare quello dell'eschimo!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Passare da un Nordkapp a un Vulcano... non è un breve passo. Comunque una volta salito a bordo un amico un po' avventato improvvisa: "Se riesci a fare l'eschimo anche con quello ti do un bacio sul #$%= !! Giuro!! Ammetto che mi ci sono voluti tre tentativi... però il risultato lo vedete nella prima foto! ;-) GRANDISSIMO ANDREA!!!!! Domenica è stata una giornata veramente memorabile! e devo dirlo, soprattutto per la compagnia! ;-)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;________________________________________________&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s1600-h/Union+Jack.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882542862128146" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s200/Union+Jack.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;During the pas sunday we enjoied a short excursion on Lake Maggiore, near the "Castelli di Canero", i think you can guess by the pictures above we had great fun!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;We did a short paddle because we were escorting some white water friends, that are not very used to paddle for several kilometers in flat waters. Before arriving to the beach we choosed to have lunch, the great Max spotted a little white water river flowing down into the lake. In a few minutes he managed to reach a good position and launched into the river! His SitOnTop kayak did its best and reached back the lake all in a peace...&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;After a quick sandiwch i paddled for some rolls a wonderfoul Nordkapp H2O, in my mind one of the best kayaks on the market, perhaps even better than my Q-Boat... but that's another story. After testing the Nordkapp i was offered to paddle a Vulcano from Rainbow kayaks, the same model of SitOnTop kayak Max tested on the river half an hour before. I was just launching when a friend challenged me: "If you can manage to roll it i will kiss your #$$ !! you can try to guess how it ended looking at the photos ;-). I had really great fun the past sunday. My brend new Ikelos is really a wonderfoul paddle but mostly i enjoied the party of kayakers i paddled with ;-).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7882899187726324867-3844273792121982113?l=larioseakayak.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/feeds/3844273792121982113/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7882899187726324867&amp;postID=3844273792121982113' title='2 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/3844273792121982113'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/3844273792121982113'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/2008/04/chi-osa-vince.html' title='Chi osa vince!'/><author><name>Maurizio</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10940155211315526880</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='25' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/Svr5CltdKoI/AAAAAAAAAMo/eVzgAnGAfks/S220/maurizio.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp2.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/SAz_PvsS-lI/AAAAAAAAAF4/2_O4wggRIsY/s72-c/kiss.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7882899187726324867.post-446310685689461748</id><published>2008-04-18T16:23:00.002+02:00</published><updated>2008-04-18T18:01:51.271+02:00</updated><title type='text'>The greek god of dreams</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s1600-h/tricolore.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882134840235010" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s200/tricolore.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ragazzi ho fatto l'ennesimo danno! Ho finalmente messo le mani sulla Werner Ikelos! ultimamente, come vi avevo anche scritto, mi ero orientato verso una Lendal... ma poi mi hanno telefonato dicendo che la mia Ikelos (ordinata a ottobre!) era arrivata e sinceramente non ho saputo resistere e ho fatto il danno! Per ora ho potuto provarla solo in piscina ma ne ho avuto una impressione estremamente positiva! Prende UN SACCO DI ACQUA ed è ottima per gli appoggi, inutile che vi parli poi del manico sagomato o dell'increbilile sistema di montaggio e regolazione dell'angolazione!&lt;br /&gt;Insomma, il mio cuore continua a battere per Avatak... ma questa pagaia è veramente una gran bella scappatella! Ci rileggiamo lunedì per le impressioni post prova!&lt;br /&gt;_________________________________________________&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s1600-h/Union+Jack.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882542862128146" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s200/Union+Jack.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Guys i did it! Some months ago i was thinking about a new paddle, my original choice was the Werner ikelos, but after a bit of reading and posting on the net i changed my mind and shifted to a Lendal Paddle. I even posted about it, however two weeks ago my kayaking-stuff -pusher called me because the Ikelos i ordered in October was arrived! The only thing i could do was go there and pick it up! So yesterday evening i tested it for the first time in the swimming pool. I have to say i had an extremely positive impression of it! It catches A LOT OF WATER and it's great for bracing! It looks really great too! It's a huge amount of black carbon that make the paddle really fashinating! However, i will test the paddle more deeply in the weekend and i will post back something more on monday!&lt;br /&gt;Bye&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7882899187726324867-446310685689461748?l=larioseakayak.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/feeds/446310685689461748/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7882899187726324867&amp;postID=446310685689461748' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/446310685689461748'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/446310685689461748'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/2008/04/greek-god-of-dreams.html' title='The greek god of dreams'/><author><name>Maurizio</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10940155211315526880</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='25' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/Svr5CltdKoI/AAAAAAAAAMo/eVzgAnGAfks/S220/maurizio.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s72-c/tricolore.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7882899187726324867.post-6645750382312364313</id><published>2008-04-15T10:23:00.002+02:00</published><updated>2008-04-15T10:27:36.130+02:00</updated><title type='text'>A Close Encounter of the Seal Kind</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s1600-h/tricolore.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882134840235010" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s200/tricolore.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Guardate che spettacolo questo video sul sito di Ocean Paddler Magazine:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.oceanpaddlermagazine.com/blog/2008/04/close-encounter-of-seal-kind.html"&gt;http://www.oceanpaddlermagazine.com/blog/2008/04/close-encounter-of-seal-kind.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fosse capitata a Roberta una cosa del genere non sarebbe più uscita dal kayak!&lt;br /&gt;_________________________________________________&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s1600-h/Union+Jack.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882542862128146" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s200/Union+Jack.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This morning i received an email from my favourite magazine about a "Close Encounter of the Seal Kind", i followed the link and i arrived to this page:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.oceanpaddlermagazine.com/blog/2008/04/close-encounter-of-seal-kind.html"&gt;http://www.oceanpaddlermagazine.com/blog/2008/04/close-encounter-of-seal-kind.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;with the beatifoul video of a yung seal swimming around some kayakers.

Personalmente ho trovato queste uscite sempre molto didattiche e spassose, senz'altro anche per l'esperta giuda di Max e Loretta; gli amici del CCM che ci giudano in queste avventure. Detto questo guardiamo avanti verso le porquerolle e le prossime uscite sul mare!

La prima è l'articolo di Enrico Carossino, Maestro di Canoa da Mare nonchè esperto kayaker fluviale (Ciao Enrico!!) che ci racconta di un suo bellissimo viaggio in Laos. Ragazzi se dovesse capitare di uscire in canoa con lui non fatevi sfuggire l'occasione, è una vera forza della natura. Il secondo articolo, sicuramente bellissimo è della solita Dottoressa Cappucci e parla del trekking in kayak nelle isole della grecia l'estate scorsa. L'articolo in questione non l'ho ancora letto perchè potrebbe essermi fatale.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;_________________________________________________&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s1600-h/Union+Jack.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882542862128146" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s200/Union+Jack.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Pagaiando is one of the very few Italian magazines about kayaking. In the number of february i have found two articles written by kayaking friends. The first is written by Enrico Carossino, Maestro di Kayak FICK and a very expert White Water kayaker. He spent some weeks in the Laos paddling several rivers and the article is very interesting, if you have the chanche to paddle with him don't miss it! He is a very good fellow ;-). The other article is from Tatiana... as usual! She and a pair of friends spent several weeks, past summer, in Greek and the article is about this trip. I haven't red it yet because i think it could put me in a very bad mood... i missed even that trip!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s1600-h/Union+Jack.jpg"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7882899187726324867-9101138387934239046?l=larioseakayak.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/feeds/9101138387934239046/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7882899187726324867&amp;postID=9101138387934239046' title='1 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/9101138387934239046'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/9101138387934239046'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/2008/04/numero-di-febbraio-di-pagaiando.html' title='Numero di Febbraio di pagaiando'/><author><name>Maurizio</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10940155211315526880</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='25' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/Svr5CltdKoI/AAAAAAAAAMo/eVzgAnGAfks/S220/maurizio.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp2.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R_vog5s-a_I/AAAAAAAAAFo/9Mpo1gZaGVI/s72-c/pagaiando.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7882899187726324867.post-8153113799870659099</id><published>2008-04-07T12:19:00.003+02:00</published><updated>2008-04-07T12:44:23.915+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Piona - Faggeto, sola ritorno</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R_n1VJs-a-I/AAAAAAAAAFg/L6Lz7xtCmRI/s1600-h/P4060005.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5186446189624454114" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R_n1VJs-a-I/AAAAAAAAAFg/L6Lz7xtCmRI/s400/P4060005.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s1600-h/tricolore.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882134840235010" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s200/tricolore.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Ieri mi sono unito ai soliti macinatori di km per rientrare in quel di Como da Piona. RV verso le ore 18 in quel di Piona appunto, 3 eschimi (di cui 2 con le mani falliti...) e poi via tutti a cena. Tralascio i dettagli sul frugale pasto consumato e sulla successiva colazione la mattina dopo... non so quale dei due sia stato + spaventoso! Comunque verso la tarda mattinata riusciamo a prendere finalmente il largo. La lunga pagaiata non ha avuto reali episodi degni di nota, se non che con il nostro fitto chiaccherare io e Tatiana abbiamo lievemente scocciato Mauro... proprio un pelino... siamo comunque sopravvissuti alla sua ira finesta :-).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Per le altre foto:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/larioseakayak/DaPionaAFaggeto"&gt;http://picasaweb.google.com/larioseakayak/DaPionaAFaggeto&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;_________________________________________________&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s1600-h/Union+Jack.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882542862128146" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s200/Union+Jack.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Saturday i joined my kayaking friends in Piona, there after a quick (and unhappy) roll session we had an enormous dinner and a tremendous breakfast... i think we ate the food used for a normal week long trip in two times, but we all know what a group of hungry kayamkers can do ;-). in the late morning we finally launched from Piona to reach Faggeto. We had a long and tranquil paddle till there. The only relevant fact is that with my dense chatting with Tatiana i bored Mauro a bit, but i survived to anger ;-).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;For the other photos:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/larioseakayak/DaPionaAFaggeto"&gt;http://picasaweb.google.com/larioseakayak/DaPionaAFaggeto&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7882899187726324867-8153113799870659099?l=larioseakayak.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/feeds/8153113799870659099/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7882899187726324867&amp;postID=8153113799870659099' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/8153113799870659099'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/8153113799870659099'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/2008/04/piona-faggeto-sola-ritorno.html' title='Piona - Faggeto, sola ritorno'/><author><name>Maurizio</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10940155211315526880</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='25' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/Svr5CltdKoI/AAAAAAAAAMo/eVzgAnGAfks/S220/maurizio.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R_n1VJs-a-I/AAAAAAAAAFg/L6Lz7xtCmRI/s72-c/P4060005.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7882899187726324867.post-8951422953047998861</id><published>2008-04-04T14:54:00.002+02:00</published><updated>2008-04-04T15:02:23.062+02:00</updated><title type='text'>They did it!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R_YlcJs-a9I/AAAAAAAAAFY/B1vwrvQwkaI/s1600-h/end.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5185373186534829010" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R_YlcJs-a9I/AAAAAAAAAFY/B1vwrvQwkaI/s400/end.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s1600-h/tricolore.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882134840235010" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s200/tricolore.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ragazzi ce l'hanno fatta! Justine e il suo compagno Berry hanno compiuto la storica impresa. Devo dire che in questo periodo il numero di kayakers che è riuscito nel periplo dell'isola sud della Nuova Zelanda è aumentato di parecchio... tanto da far pensare che il viaggio sia una passeggiata! Non dobbiamo invece sottovalutare il risoltato! Ragazzi chi fa di queste cose ha senz'altro attributi taurini!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Complimenti ragazzi!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;_________________________________________________&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s1600-h/Union+Jack.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882542862128146" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s200/Union+Jack.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Guys they did it! Justine and Berry completed the circumnavigation of New Zeland south island. I have to say that in the recent past the number of kayakers that completed the circumnavigation is quite impressing... I think it's very important not to understimate the importance and the difficulties of a trip like this! Only the best kayakers can do this type of adventures!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So my best congratulations to the team! ;-)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7882899187726324867-8951422953047998861?l=larioseakayak.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/feeds/8951422953047998861/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7882899187726324867&amp;postID=8951422953047998861' title='1 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/8951422953047998861'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/8951422953047998861'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/2008/04/they-did-it.html' title='They did it!'/><author><name>Maurizio</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10940155211315526880</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='25' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/Svr5CltdKoI/AAAAAAAAAMo/eVzgAnGAfks/S220/maurizio.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp2.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R_YlcJs-a9I/AAAAAAAAAFY/B1vwrvQwkaI/s72-c/end.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7882899187726324867.post-6594459480614167712</id><published>2008-04-03T10:11:00.003+02:00</published><updated>2008-04-03T10:17:16.883+02:00</updated><title type='text'>Ocean Paddler Magazine - April 2008</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R_SRk5s-a8I/AAAAAAAAAFQ/m0kj35WfODs/s1600-h/cover.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5184929134161062850" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R_SRk5s-a8I/AAAAAAAAAFQ/m0kj35WfODs/s400/cover.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s1600-h/tricolore.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882134840235010" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s200/tricolore.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ragazzi è giunto anche il numero di aprile, vi riporto il solito link per i contenuti:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.oceanpaddlermagazine.com/issues/009/"&gt;http://www.oceanpaddlermagazine.com/issues/009/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;e vi anticipo un punto: la recensione di un kayak strip built, cioè costruito con strisce di legno di cedro, basato sui disegni dell'Expolorer.

Tutto sommato penso di poter trarre un bilancio positivo dell'esperienza, sicuramente ho tutto da imparare da questo ambiente nuovo, però devo dire che pensavo di cavarmela anche peggio. Per ora accontentatevi della foto qui sopra, domani procedo ad uplodare anche le altre.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;________________________________________________&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s1600-h/Union+Jack.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882542862128146" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s200/Union+Jack.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;During the past weekend, with other 3 Sea Kayakers, we decided to spent our time on the river Vara, in Liguria.We had great fun with white water kayaking, for us is quite a new experience and we have really a lot more to learn. We tried hard to do our best and to keep our "salt honour" intact. I have to say we succeeded in this mission and we will try again if we will have another chanche in the future.Today i can post just this picture, tomorrow i will proceed posting all the others.&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s1600-h/Union+Jack.jpg"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7882899187726324867-2173010103051825474?l=larioseakayak.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/feeds/2173010103051825474/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7882899187726324867&amp;postID=2173010103051825474' title='4 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/2173010103051825474'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/2173010103051825474'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/2008/03/week-end-sul-vara.html' title='Week End sul Vara'/><author><name>Maurizio</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10940155211315526880</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='25' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/Svr5CltdKoI/AAAAAAAAAMo/eVzgAnGAfks/S220/maurizio.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R_DyXZs-a7I/AAAAAAAAAFI/5i4w4VOHJ5A/s72-c/4seakayakers.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7882899187726324867.post-8593197697132693535</id><published>2008-03-28T14:16:00.003+01:00</published><updated>2008-03-28T14:22:54.694+01:00</updated><title type='text'>New School</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R-zv15s-a6I/AAAAAAAAAE4/0oXOYXjoOZs/s1600-h/scuola.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5182780980498164642" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R-zv15s-a6I/AAAAAAAAAE4/0oXOYXjoOZs/s400/scuola.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s1600-h/tricolore.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882134840235010" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s200/tricolore.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Quella che vedete nella foto è la nuoverrima scuola di Sull'Acqua.

Da quest'anno grazie all'interessamento di alcuini soci (primo fra tutti il nostro presidentissimo Emanuele Rodari) avbbiamo anche un locale adibito a Scuola e rimessa per le attrezzature.

Come sapete sono un accanito sostenitore delle pagaie Avatak, e non penso di cimentarmi, quantomeno in un prossimo futuro, nella costruzione di una pagaia groenlandese; ho comunque trovato l'articolo molto interessante; sia per la dovizia di particolari che per l'abbondanza di foto.

Che dire, un ambiente a noi marini un po' alieno... però sicuramente interessante ;-)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;12 Febbraio 2008: nasce WildWater TV Italia, canale televisivo on-line finalizzato alla diffusione di video in &lt;a style="TEXT-DECORATION: none" target="_blank"&gt;alta definizione&lt;/a&gt; dedicati allo sport della &lt;a style="TEXT-DECORATION: none" target="_blank"&gt;discesa fluviale&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;I mass media ci ignorano? WildWater TV Italia si propone di colmare questo deficit informativo su uno sport altamente spettacolare.&lt;br /&gt;WildWater TV Italia vuole essere il punto di incontro dei discesisti. Non solo video sulle gare, ma anche interviste a canoisti, tecnici, allenatori, rappresentanti della Federazione.&lt;br /&gt;Esattamente come su un vero canale televisivo.&lt;br /&gt;I nostri video possono essere visti a schermo intero (come in televisione) senza perdita di qualità.&lt;br /&gt;Crediamo che &lt;a style="TEXT-DECORATION: none" target="_blank"&gt;i nostri propositi&lt;/a&gt; siano anche i vostri: far conoscere meglio e propagandare il nostro bellissimo sport in Italia e nel mondo.&lt;br /&gt;Memorizzate il sito web di WildWater TV Italia:  &lt;a href="http://www.wwtv.it/"&gt;http://www.wwtv.it/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;venite spesso a visitarci e contribuite con i vostri filmati!&lt;br /&gt;Alessandro Leonori&lt;br /&gt;_________________________________________________&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s1600-h/Union+Jack.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882542862128146" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s200/Union+Jack.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I received today this email about Wild Water TV Italia, a new web-tv abot Wite Water Kayaking.

Mi rendo conto che sia un po' autocelebrativo come post... però è un giro di boa. Purtroppo in questo periodo, a causa soprattutto della latitanza di chi vi scrive, non abbiamo più incrementato il numero di visitatori con i ritmi vertiginosi dei mesi passati. Però rimedieremo ;-).&lt;br /&gt;Per i prossimi aggiornamenti miraccomando continuate a leggerci!&lt;br /&gt;_________________________________________________&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s1600-h/Union+Jack.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882542862128146" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s200/Union+Jack.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With the past post LarioSeaKayak passed the 100 posts mark. It's not a real goal, neither an impressive result. It's just a moment to think about what we have acheived till now. In the past weeks we didn't increment visitors with the usual, impressive peace; i think this is for the lack of updates on the blog... i hope things will change in the near future.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7882899187726324867-567285470508093603?l=larioseakayak.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/feeds/567285470508093603/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7882899187726324867&amp;postID=567285470508093603' title='1 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/567285470508093603'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/567285470508093603'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/2008/02/100-post-anzi-101.html' title='100 post... anzi 101!'/><author><name>Maurizio</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10940155211315526880</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='25' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/Svr5CltdKoI/AAAAAAAAAMo/eVzgAnGAfks/S220/maurizio.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s72-c/tricolore.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7882899187726324867.post-4886120708952342702</id><published>2008-02-18T11:09:00.003+01:00</published><updated>2008-02-18T11:12:20.337+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Pica Desfroos!!

Ebbene sì, venerdì 8 febbraio è uscito Pica! l'ultimo album appunto di Davide Bernasconi, in arte Davide Van De Sfroos. Chi mi conosce sa che è il mio cantante preferito (praticamente ascolto solo quello... che ci volete fare) e forse anche qualche cosa di più. Nelle sue canzoni io ritrovo il lago in cui sono cresciuto, certi persnaggi che hanno popolato la mia infanzia... e che tuttora sono assolutamente presenti nei miei ricordi. Bè, per farla breve; l'album è bellissimo!!! Ci sono canzoni che sicuramente sono tra le migliori mai fatte dal Davide, forse gli manca la vetta di Aquadulza, che caratterizzava lo scorso album; vi assicuro comunque che sono presenti validi sostituti ;-).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Ultima nota: Pica! era il motto dei minatori, letteralmente vuol dire "picchia", ma possiamo leggerlo anche come "lavora più forte!" o ancora "dacci dentro!" quindi non posso che auguare al Davide: Pica Desfroos!! Pica!!!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Vi lascio come al solito un paio di link:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cauboi.it/"&gt;http://www.cauboi.it/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.davidevandesfroos.com/"&gt;http://www.davidevandesfroos.com/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;_________________________________________________&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s1600-h/Union+Jack.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882542862128146" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s200/Union+Jack.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;On past friday has been published the last album of Davide van De Sfroos, a local singer, author, writer, poet (and possibily more) of Lake Como. What makes this guy different from the rest of the italian singers is that he sings about stories of Lake Como, and some characters very tipical of the lake and his past (the old fisherman, the smuggler, ecc..). The majority of his songs are written in the local dialect, and this is another important part of his success.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;As usual i leave you a pair of links:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.cauboi.it/"&gt;http://www.cauboi.it/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.davidevandesfroos.com/"&gt;http://www.davidevandesfroos.com/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s1600-h/Union+Jack.jpg"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7882899187726324867-4886120708952342702?l=larioseakayak.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/feeds/4886120708952342702/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7882899187726324867&amp;postID=4886120708952342702' title='1 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/4886120708952342702'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/4886120708952342702'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/2008/02/pica-desfroos-pica.html' title='Pica Desfroos!!

Mi sembra comunque doveroso dedicare un post a quello che a mio avviso è un ottimo prodotto. Praticamente si tratta di quanti in neoprene monofoderato, direi di 3mm. Io li uso da un paio di stagioni e li trovo veramente perfetti. All'esterno sono in neoprene foderato, quindi molto "gommosi" al tatto; questo da un ottima presa sulla pagaia e impedisce all'acqua di entrare. All'iinterno è normale neoprene, poroso e caldo... che dirvi, io personalmente li straconsiglio, e anche il buon Gotta mi sembra ne sia un soddisfatto utilizzatore.&lt;br /&gt;Il sito del produttore è questo: &lt;a href="http://www.glacierglove.com/"&gt;http://www.glacierglove.com/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Se siete allergici al commercio elettronico e abitate in europa potete sempre ordinarli al mitico Peter Nikolai: &lt;a href="http://www.nanuk.de/"&gt;http://www.nanuk.de/&lt;/a&gt; il kayaker marino più bravo che io abbia mai conosciuto!&lt;br /&gt;P.S. : guardate che non mi viene in tasca nulla da questo post, vi riporto queste info solamente come informazione (spero) utile&lt;br /&gt;_________________________________________________&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s1600-h/Union+Jack.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882542862128146" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s200/Union+Jack.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some time ago i posted something about these gloves. I bought them a pair of season ago and i'm a very satisfied user of this product. In my mind the gloves are cheap, warm and quite dry, most important they offer a superb grip on the paddle. The outer part of the gloves is covered by a sort of rubber so you have a very natural feeling on the paddle. If i don't roll very much and the sea is not rough i can paddle for several hours with totally dry hands! This is not a secondary thing...&lt;br /&gt;The original site is: &lt;a href="http://www.glacierglove.com/"&gt;http://www.glacierglove.com/&lt;/a&gt; but if you don't like ecommerc you can request the to Mr. Peter Nicolai, the best sea kayaker i have ever met!

In teoria, almeno, secondo leggendarie tradizioni popolari oramai cancellate dagli stravolgimenti climatici... si, perchè il vento caldo da nord, il famigerato Poehn, non solo ha innalzato le temperature sino a 18 gradi centigradi ma ha anche imbiancato il lago di onde alte, veloci e ravvicinate!&lt;br /&gt;Il rientro nel primo pomeriggio da Gravedona a Piona è stato ,quindi, funestato da condizioni meteorologiche imprevedibili, che han reso la traversata alquanto impegnativa, specie per i partecipanti meno esperti e meno allenati!&lt;br /&gt;Ci saremmo potuti divertire un bel pò, a cavalcare quelle onde nebulizzate dal vento, a contrastare quelle raffiche che correvano ad oltre 30 nodi, a risalire quel lago nervoso e spumeggiante..... ma non c'era spazio per il divertimento: appena Luciano ha "chiamato" tutti a raccolta per traversare, è cominciata la diaspora!&lt;br /&gt;Due pagaiatori più esperti con pochi colpi erano già in centro lago, oramai troppo distanti per capire cosa stava succedendo alle loro spalle; un pagaiatore dolorante, invece, ha preferito rinunciare ed è stato aiutato da Luciano a sbarcare per attendere a terra un recupero con le auto; un pagaiatore più lento degli altri ha subito perso il contatto visivo col resto del gruppo; il pagaiatore più anziano, invece, ha preso a scarrocciare in maniera talmente vistosa da richiamare immediatamente l'attenzione di Mauro che, pur raggiungendolo, non ha potuto far altro che "scortarlo" sino a riva, ma sul versante "sbagliato" del lago... lì sono rimasti ad attendere i "soccorsi" via terra, costretti nel bar dell'oratorio a consumare un tè caldo per sopportare due lunghe ore di attesa... immaginate la furia repressa del povero Mauro!&lt;br /&gt;Con una punta di malcelato orgoglio vi confermo, invece, che le due donne del gruppo hanno compiuto le traversata, seppur al traino, percorrendo la breve distanza di 2 km in poco più di 2 ore: una velocità di crociera davvero invidiabile, no?  Daria, alla sua prima esperienza in lago, si è comportata egregiamente, e tutte e due siamo state sempre "scortate" dal prode Marco, esperto fluviale che ha dimostrato a tutti come la tecnica affinata in acqua bianca possa trarre d'impaccio quando il lago si in...crespa!!!&lt;br /&gt;Quando siamo sbarcati a Piona, è stato facile contare i "dispersi" e capire che le "perdite" ammontavano a ben più del 20% consentito ed accettabile, che Mauro, scherzando, indica come limite invalicabile... su 10 ne mancavano 4 all'appello!&lt;br /&gt;Ciliegina sulla torta: Luciano, dopo avere scortato a terra il pagaiatore dolorante, ha ripreso in solitaria la traversata, ma in centro lago è stato raggiunto, affiancato e recuperato dalla pilotina dei Vigili del Fuoco, costretto così sulla barca a motore a sopportare vento ed onde ancora più violente...&lt;br /&gt;Nessuno è andato a bagno, nessuno si è realmente "perduto", nessuno ha avuto (troppa) paura... forse anche grazie alla preparazione acquisita, alla sicurezza adottata e alla solidarietà dimostrata, che in questi casi costituiscono "dotazioni" indispensabili per la navigazione in sicurezza!&lt;br /&gt;Certo, il lago così gonfio non lo avevo ancora mai visto... e per la prima volta in vita mia, ho eseguito un  magistrale appoggio... nel vento! completamente sbilanciata di lato per non farmi capovolgere, la raffica violenta e prolungata che sferzava il kayak, la pagaia che cercava l'appoggio neanche arrivava a toccare l'acqua, il vento da solo bastava a sostenermi, incredibile!&lt;br /&gt;Emozionante... l'intera giornata è stata emozionante, ed indimenticabile!&lt;br /&gt;Spero, però, irripetibile!&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s1600-h/Union+Jack.jpg"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7882899187726324867-4171784744892929244?l=larioseakayak.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/feeds/4171784744892929244/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7882899187726324867&amp;postID=4171784744892929244' title='1 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/4171784744892929244'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/4171784744892929244'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/2008/01/raduno-con-naufragio.html' title='Raduno con naufragio'/><author><name>Tatiana</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_HinWzkZl9ZY/Sij8A1QBjLI/AAAAAAAAAKk/WZC1liGs1AA/S220/Tati+x+CKI-R.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7882899187726324867.post-3841681514812659127</id><published>2008-01-30T23:11:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2008-01-30T23:14:56.755+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Foto in alto Lario 26 gennaio</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s1600-h/tricolore.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882134840235010" style="FLOAT: left;

Personalmente è uno dei raduni a cui tengo maggiormente, è un occasione per incontrare gli amici e godersi il lago in uno dei suoi momenti più belli. Anche quest'anno l'Invernale non è stata avaro di sorprese. Io ho partecipato solamente alla giornata di sabato, che si è conclusa con la scorta del solito kayaker male equipaggiato... e relativo rientro in solitario del sottoscritto. Ben più ricca di avvenimenti è stata la giornata di domenica, che funestata da un insolito vento caldo ha trasformato il lago in un mare in burrasca. La spedizione dei Nostri è stata dispersa per tutto l'alto lago, la presenza degli esperti kayaker di Sottocosta ha comunque evitato bagni ai meno esperti... Spero di riuscire a convincere Tatiana a postare qualche cosa di sua mano soll'accaduto.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;_________________________________________________&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s1600-h/Union+Jack.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882542862128146" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s200/Union+Jack.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Every year in late january a winter kayak meeting take place on Lake Como. This meeting is leaded by Luciano Belloni, a sea kayaking Legend in italy. I was present only for the day of saturday, the lake was very calm and the only concern was a kayaker very badly dressed for the cold water. Another matter was the day of Sunday. An unusual hot wind changed quickly the Lake conditions into rough, so the group of kayakers got scattered on the entire northern part of the lake! Only the presence of the expert kayakers of Sottocosta avoided an "unhappy ending" of this excursion. I hope to convince Tatiana (she was present that day) to write a post on her own about this adventure.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s1600-h/Union+Jack.jpg"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7882899187726324867-499482735163739183?l=larioseakayak.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/feeds/499482735163739183/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7882899187726324867&amp;postID=499482735163739183' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/499482735163739183'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/499482735163739183'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/2008/01/un-tranquillo-weekend-sul-lario.html' title='Un tranquillo weekend sul Lario'/><author><name>Maurizio</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10940155211315526880</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='25' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/Svr5CltdKoI/AAAAAAAAAMo/eVzgAnGAfks/S220/maurizio.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R58lNk7dcVI/AAAAAAAAAEg/1r_0_lRvclM/s72-c/foto.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7882899187726324867.post-4967059938985734001</id><published>2008-01-25T18:29:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2008-01-25T18:34:34.735+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Settimana da incubo!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s1600-h/tricolore.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882134840235010" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s200/tricolore.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Insomma, questa settimana non siamo proprio riusciti a combinare nulla di buono, kayakisticamente parlando.

Come molti di voi sanno sono un convintissimo utilizzatore di pagaie Avatak (&lt;a href="http://www.avatakpagaie.com/"&gt;www.avatakpagaie.com&lt;/a&gt;), ne posseggo diverse e penso che siano veramente lo stato dell'arte per quanto riguarda le pagaie tradizionali. La mia preferita è senz'altro la Groenlandese, la stessa che vedete in molte mie foto. Detto questo mi piacerebbe ritornare a una pagaia incrociata di concezione moderna. La mia scelta era caduta su una Werner Ikelos per una serie di motivi; primo tra i quali la usa Chriss Duff, il mio idolo! Pensandoci su più razionalmente, e soprattutto dopo aver ascoltato qualche consiglio di amici, ho rivalutato la mia decisione e ho deciso di passare a Lendal; più precisamente una Lendal Kinetik di 215 con Varilok sistem. Vi terrò aggiornati sul proseguo della discussione, se comunque ualcuno di voi conosce l'indirizzo di un rivenditore Lenadl (anche in UK o USA) e ha voglia di fornirmelo mi fa un grosso piacere. &lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;_________________________________________________&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s1600-h/Union+Jack.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882542862128146" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s200/Union+Jack.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;It's a while i'm considering to buy a new paddle. I'm using greenland paddles from Avatak (&lt;a href="http://www.avatakpagaie.com/"&gt;www.avatakpagaie.com&lt;/a&gt;) since few years and i think they are the best greenlands paddles money can buy. However i'm considering to buy even a modern carbon paddle, originaly i was for the Werner Ikelos, Werner i a very well known brand and my kayaking Iddol uses a Werner Ikelos (Chriss Duff!!!) However recently i considered more seriously the Lendal Kinetik. I will keep you updated about mu search, but if in the meantime someone of you knows where to buy one of this paddle online and would, like to share this information i would gratly appreciate it.&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s1600-h/Union+Jack.jpg"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7882899187726324867-5066276606818684550?l=larioseakayak.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/feeds/5066276606818684550/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7882899187726324867&amp;postID=5066276606818684550' title='5 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/5066276606818684550'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/5066276606818684550'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/2008/01/lendal-paddles.html' title='Lendal Paddles'/><author><name>Maurizio</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10940155211315526880</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='25' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/Svr5CltdKoI/AAAAAAAAAMo/eVzgAnGAfks/S220/maurizio.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s72-c/tricolore.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7882899187726324867.post-794128468592961460</id><published>2008-01-18T15:47:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2008-01-18T15:56:47.799+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Nuovi arrivi</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s1600-h/tricolore.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882134840235010" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s200/tricolore.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Rieccomi a Voi dopo qualche giorno di assenza, purtroppo a volte il dovere chiama. In questi giorni alla mia già folta libreria si sono aggiunti due nuovi titoli da Pesda Press:&lt;br /&gt;Scottish Sea Kayaking:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.pesdapress.com/product_info.php?cPath=9_13&amp;amp;products_id=1"&gt;http://www.pesdapress.com/product_info.php?cPath=9_13&amp;amp;products_id=1&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;e Sea Kayak Navigation:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.pesdapress.com/product_info.php?cPath=9_13&amp;amp;products_id=18"&gt;http://www.pesdapress.com/product_info.php?cPath=9_13&amp;amp;products_id=18&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Entrambi i volumi mi sembrano bellissimi, il primo è anche una lettura piacevole, oltre ad essere un portolano scrupoloso e dettagliato per 50 escusioni sulle coste Scozzesi.&lt;br /&gt;Il secondo è praticamente un libro di testo per gli esami BCU, decisamente non banale! Oltretutto pensato in un formato compatto che lo rende veramente idoneo al trasporto via kayak.&lt;br /&gt;Entrambi i libri sono già stati dirottati verso due amici che ne avranno presto bisogno... ma questa è un altra storia ;-).&lt;br /&gt;_________________________________________________&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s1600-h/Union+Jack.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882542862128146" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s200/Union+Jack.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After some days of hard work i'm back to my blog. yesterday i received the last two books i ordered from Pesda Press:&lt;br /&gt;Scottish Sea Kayaking:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.pesdapress.com/product_info.php?cPath=9_13&amp;amp;products_id=1"&gt;http://www.pesdapress.com/product_info.php?cPath=9_13&amp;amp;products_id=1&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and Sea Kayak Navigation:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.pesdapress.com/product_info.php?cPath=9_13&amp;amp;products_id=18"&gt;http://www.pesdapress.com/product_info.php?cPath=9_13&amp;amp;products_id=18&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The first one is a pleasure to read, i bought it wandering a week of holiday in Scotland. I think it's very well done and it describer fifty excursions on the Scottish coast very well. The second is a real BCU manual, as many of you already know.&lt;br /&gt;Both books has been lent to friends who soon will need them very much, but this is another story... ;-).&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7882899187726324867-794128468592961460?l=larioseakayak.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/feeds/794128468592961460/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7882899187726324867&amp;postID=794128468592961460' title='2 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/794128468592961460'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/794128468592961460'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/2008/01/nuovi-arrivi.html' title='Nuovi arrivi'/><author><name>Maurizio</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10940155211315526880</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='25' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/Svr5CltdKoI/AAAAAAAAAMo/eVzgAnGAfks/S220/maurizio.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s72-c/tricolore.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7882899187726324867.post-181936144943358586</id><published>2008-01-15T13:36:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2008-01-15T13:40:34.424+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Primo Post!!!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_HinWzkZl9ZY/R4ypF41B3pI/AAAAAAAAAAM/T9QeSyU-Gwk/s1600-h/sassi.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5155681592051621522" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_HinWzkZl9ZY/R4ypF41B3pI/AAAAAAAAAAM/T9QeSyU-Gwk/s200/sassi.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s1600-h/tricolore.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882134840235010" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s200/tricolore.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; I sassi li guardo attraverso i buchi, li raccolgo riempiendo il gavone del mio kayak e li nascondo in cantina per farne ogni tanto delle collane...&lt;br /&gt;Ma non è del tutto vero che sono "l'amica brava di kayak" di Maurizio!&lt;br /&gt;Sono riuscita ad imparare molto lentamente 10 eskimi a pala lunga e 10 a pala corta, tutti sia a destra che a sinistra, da poco anche quello con le mani proprio grazie all'insistenza dl fido Maurizio...&lt;br /&gt;Però, il mare di poppa mi preoccupa ancora molto e anche se nell'ultimo viaggio ho sostenuto, senza urlare di paura, onde frangenti di circa tre metri, so di dovere imparare ancora molto...&lt;br /&gt;Del resto, andare per mare è anche questo: avere sempre qualcosa da scoprire!&lt;br /&gt;Bene, questo primo post di presentazione, gli altri per "raccontare" le mie escursioni in kayak.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Bacitati&lt;br /&gt;_________________________________________________&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s1600-h/Union+Jack.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882542862128146" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s200/Union+Jack.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I watch stones through their holes, I fill my day-hatch with and hide them in my cellar to make necklaces...&lt;br /&gt;But I'm not really the as skilled as Maurizio says...&lt;br /&gt;I'm able to do 10 eskimo rolls with extended paddle and other 10 in normal position, both right and left, recently I also learnd to hand roll, thank of Maurizio's insistence.&lt;br /&gt;I'm already worried with high following seas, but i'm making progresses.

Come al solito l'ho preso in mano e sono rimasto come un deficente a leggerlo in piedi per un periodo di tempo indefinibile... le urla di Roberta mi hanno riportato alla realtà.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Ragazzi OP migliora come il vino, ogni numero è migliore del precedente.

Tutto d'un fiato! Era dai tempi dei libri di O'Brian che non leggevo un libro in questo modo. A mio parere il libro è bellissimo, stupendo nella sua terribile onestà. Terribile come terribile deve essere una avventura come quella di Alex. Il nostro non teme di ammettere le sue paure, le difficoltà e gli errori; come fanno i grandi avventurieri. Nella mia personale classifica si è ritagliato un posto d'onore, diciamo tra Chriss Duff e Soldini ;-). Grazie Alex per il tuo libro, in bocca al lupo per la prossima tua sfida... e alla prossima!&lt;br /&gt;_________________________________________________&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s1600-h/Union+Jack.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882542862128146" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s200/Union+Jack.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some days ago i posted about a book from Alex Bellini. This guy rowed through the Atlantic Ocean and survived to an impressive amount of difficulties. I liked very much the book because Alex, as the great adventurers, admits honestly his mistakes and his fears. The book is very megnetic, i started reading it 23 o'clock and ended for 3AM... normally this happens to me only with O'Brian's books.... . I hope this book will be translated in English sooner or later. If i have news about this i will keep you updated.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7882899187726324867-8300470960808532848?l=larioseakayak.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/feeds/8300470960808532848/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7882899187726324867&amp;postID=8300470960808532848' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/8300470960808532848'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/8300470960808532848'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/2008/01/all-in-night.html' title='All in a night'/><author><name>Maurizio</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10940155211315526880</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='25' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/Svr5CltdKoI/AAAAAAAAAMo/eVzgAnGAfks/S220/maurizio.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s72-c/tricolore.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7882899187726324867.post-3427767128793589449</id><published>2008-01-05T18:52:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2008-01-05T19:09:04.073+01:00</updated><title type='text'>On the Snow</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R3_GfnKBFoI/AAAAAAAAADw/dD_y-zvlPpA/s1600-h/Roby+Sci+Alpinismo.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5152054745124378242" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R3_GfnKBFoI/AAAAAAAAADw/dD_y-zvlPpA/s320/Roby+Sci+Alpinismo.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s1600-h/tricolore.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882134840235010" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s200/tricolore.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Chi mi conosce sa del mio rapporto un po' conflittuale con la montagna, ebbene la mia dolce metà (che vedete qui in foto) è riuscita nell'arduo compito di farmi appassionare a questa!

The sea was my true passion, as it is now. Recently my girlfriend, and future wife, Roberta; convinced me to try cross country skiing. I have to say this sport has surprised me very much. For me it's a new way to enjoy the mountains and to be a part of the environment, a bit like sea kayaking ;-).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7882899187726324867-3427767128793589449?l=larioseakayak.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/feeds/3427767128793589449/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7882899187726324867&amp;postID=3427767128793589449' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/3427767128793589449'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/3427767128793589449'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/2008/01/on-snow.html' title='On the Snow'/><author><name>Maurizio</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10940155211315526880</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='25' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/Svr5CltdKoI/AAAAAAAAAMo/eVzgAnGAfks/S220/maurizio.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R3_GfnKBFoI/AAAAAAAAADw/dD_y-zvlPpA/s72-c/Roby+Sci+Alpinismo.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7882899187726324867.post-5045762508069638155</id><published>2008-01-03T17:09:00.001+01:00</published><updated>2008-01-03T17:12:14.786+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Freya!!!!!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_JiTYiWD2H3s/R3bixBACWwI/AAAAAAAAAgY/9psppoumxWw/s400/Epic-175.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_JiTYiWD2H3s/R3bixBACWwI/AAAAAAAAAgY/9psppoumxWw/s400/Epic-175.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s1600-h/tricolore.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882134840235010" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s200/tricolore.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ragazzi la mitica Freya ce l'ha fatta, dopo un ultima tappa di CENTOSESSANTACINQUE (165) KM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Primo fra tutti è ovviamente la mia adorata Kokatat: una svolta! Però... non si è limitato a quello. Sotto l'albero infatti, ho trovato anche una Petl DUO LED 14! Bellissima, potente, compatta e stagna fino a 5mt! Che cosa potrebbe desiderare di + un kayaker?! Una Werner Ikelos! ;-D ma quella è un altra storia... Spero di poter utilizzare al più presto la mia bellissima frontale.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;_____________________________________________________&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s1600-h/Union+Jack.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882542862128146" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s200/Union+Jack.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Christmas is just passed so i'm playing with many new toys! The first and most important is my adored drysuit that really changed my way of kayaking during the winter. But Santa Claus didn't stop at the Kokatat! My latest gift is the Petzl DUO LED 14! Wounderful, powerful, stilish and most important waterproof to 5mt! What else could  kayaker dream about?! A Werner Ikelos! but that's another story ;-)...

Pietro Dellamaria) è stato il mio primo e storico "socio" di Kayak. Abbiamo condiviso i primi indelebili passi verso un modo di andare in kayak più serio e consapevole. Indimenticabili i primi eschimi e il primo storico giro del Lario! All'epoca una vera e propria epopea! &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;(Questa foto è di allora ed è stata scattata all'arrivo a villa Geno)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5147224947025843794" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R26d0XKBFlI/AAAAAAAAADY/JkzEEFUIyV4/s320/DSC01902.JPG" border="0" /&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Il Nostro è un pagaiatore fine e molto tecnico, amante delle acque piatte e delle medie TERRIFICANTI! Le sue andature disumane hanno dato origine a termini come "media Perliniana", "andatura Perliniana" oppure "lago Perliniano". Le prime indicano medie o velocità abbastanza inquietanti e disumane per il pagaiatore umano (si parla di medie superiori ai 4.2 nodi con punte superiori ai 5!!!) mentre la seconda indica un lago a specchio, ideale appunto per i maniaci della velocità e del gesto atletico.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Ultimamente Capitan Perlini è giustamente preso da impegni ben più seri che lo sterile pagaiare, essendo alle prese con due bellissime (e vivacissime!) bimbe di 3 e 2 anni. Spero comunque che ritrovi presto il tempo per riunirsi alla compagnia ritornare a farci morire con le sue andature disumane.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Nota: la foto in alto ritrae chi vi scrive e Il Nostro in una serissima disquisizione accademica sulla natura del liquido di colore rosso contenuto nei calici in primo piano. Se a qualcuno dovesse accidentalmente sorgere qualche dubbio sulla natura dei nostri copricapi, sappiate che si!

With him a shared my first real steps in a more serious way to do Sea Kayaking, most of all the first rolls and the first trip around Lake Como, thinking back to it now it looked to as like a great journey! A real adventure! The second photo has been taken at our arrival in Como, after the four days paddle.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The Captain is also known for his outstaning paddle technique, that pushes him at speeds rarely reached by normal people ;-). This way of paddling has created some new abjectives, like a Perlinian peace or a Perlinian speed ;-)).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;However in the last few years our Captain is dealing with some more serious business than Sea Kayaking.

Si può comprare richiedendolo al sottoscritto oppure sul sito di Sottocosta ( &lt;a href="http://www.sottocosta.it/"&gt;www.sottocosta.it&lt;/a&gt; ) .

Finally the book:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;"Il Kayak da Mare - Divertirsi in Sicurezza"(literally: Sea Kayaking - Having fun safetly) has been published. This is an important event for the Sea Kayaking community. It's the first modern book about sea kayaking published in italy, and i think it's an important sign that the sport is growing in popularity and importance. If someone would like to buy the book, this can be done directly writing me an email or visiting the site of Sottocosta (&lt;a href="http://www.sottocosta.it/"&gt;www.sottocosta.it&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s1600-h/Union+Jack.jpg"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7882899187726324867-1875071520846989806?l=larioseakayak.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/feeds/1875071520846989806/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7882899187726324867&amp;postID=1875071520846989806' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/1875071520846989806'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/1875071520846989806'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/2007/12/il-kayak-da-mare-divertirsi-in.html' title='Il Kayak da Mare - Divertirsi in Sicurezza'/><author><name>Maurizio</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10940155211315526880</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='25' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/Svr5CltdKoI/AAAAAAAAAMo/eVzgAnGAfks/S220/maurizio.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp2.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R2vH8HKBFjI/AAAAAAAAADI/7YK2D-O-mU4/s72-c/libro.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7882899187726324867.post-6839521774666492381</id><published>2007-12-19T12:29:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2007-12-19T12:35:59.045+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Elezioni FICK</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.federcanoa.it/immagini/news/predefinita.gif"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 155px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 152px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" height="167" alt="" src="http://www.federcanoa.it/immagini/news/predefinita.gif" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Questo blog non si occupa di politica per preciso volere di chi scrive.

Una kayaker di grande esperienza e capacità: Istruttrice Sottocosta, Guida Marina Sottocosta e Maestra di Canoa da Mare FICK; nonchè grandissima autrice di numerosi racconti pubblicati su Pagaiando. Dite che basta? ;-) Per me si!

(Winter Italian Sea Kayak Event)  La giornata di sabato, alla quale non ero per la verità presente, è stata fredda e ventosa. Il raduno si è comunque svolto regolarmente. Sabato sera ha avuto luogo il solito luculliano banchetto, che per la verità ha fatto non poche vittime ;-). Domenica mattina la meteo è stata giudicata dai più non idonea a un uscita in kayak; morale della favola siamo usciti solamente in 7, abbiamo fatto un breve giro dalle Grazie sino alla grotta di Byron e siamo ritornati all'ovile. Il tutto si è concluso con una pizza a porto venere. Un enorme grazie allo storico organizzatore di questo raduno:  Luciano Belloni. Ovviamente la foto qui sopra è dei 7 "Dannati Del Kayak" che hanno preso il mare.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;______________________________________________________________&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s1600-h/Union+Jack.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882542862128146" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s200/Union+Jack.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Every year in this period many italian kayakers are used to meet at the W.I.S.K.I.E. (Winter Italian Sea Kayak Event), an important kayak meeting that happens in Liguria; between La Spezia and Bocca di Magra. The meeting is two days long, on saturday normally we paddle from Bocca di Magra and Lerici, and than the way back. On Sunday we start from Le Grazie and we paddle around the island Palmaria, via Portovenere. On Saturday evening there's a huge dinner with serveral tipical dishes of Liguria.This year the program had a little variation, the program of the two days has been inverted. On saturday was a bit cold but the sea was quite good, on Sunday the weather got worse so just a small groups of kayakers (of course i was with them ;-) you can see the photo of the group just above) decided to do a short paddle. We paddled from Le Grazie to the Cavern of Byron just after Portovenere. I enjoied very much the paddle, the sea was easy and i had quite fun :-).A very big THANK YOU to the great Luciano Belloni, the person that every year make this meeting possible.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7882899187726324867-3104745398845137239?l=larioseakayak.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/feeds/3104745398845137239/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7882899187726324867&amp;postID=3104745398845137239' title='2 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/3104745398845137239'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/3104745398845137239'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/2007/12/wiskei.html' title='W.I.S.K.E.I. !!!!!!!!'/><author><name>Maurizio</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10940155211315526880</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='25' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/Svr5CltdKoI/AAAAAAAAAMo/eVzgAnGAfks/S220/maurizio.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R2a9d3KBFhI/AAAAAAAAACc/AoRhLQ6iVDE/s72-c/PC160203.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7882899187726324867.post-7460948983141757749</id><published>2007-12-12T10:49:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2007-12-12T10:52:00.776+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Andrew McAuley</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R1-u1SdD85I/AAAAAAAAACU/A5_OKfJQSBs/s1600-h/andrew_mcauley.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5143021529990427538" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R1-u1SdD85I/AAAAAAAAACU/A5_OKfJQSBs/s320/andrew_mcauley.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s1600-h/tricolore.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882134840235010" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s200/tricolore.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Non posso non dare eco a una post del solito Wenley riguardante Andrew McAuley, sul suo blog ( &lt;a href="http://onkayaks.squarespace.com/"&gt;http://onkayaks.squarespace.com&lt;/a&gt; ) il nostro ci riporta la chiamata di soccorso fatta da Andrew. Personalmente ho trovato la vicenda molto triste, sia per il modo e il luogo in cui si è verificata (praticamente in vista della costa!) e sia per il lato umano della cosa. Andrew ha lasciato moglie e una bimba... Vi rimando al suo sito: &lt;a href="http://www.andrewmcauley.com/"&gt;http://www.andrewmcauley.com/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;________________________________________________________________&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s1600-h/Union+Jack.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882542862128146" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s200/Union+Jack.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Today i post reminding you to another blog, the one from Wenley ( &lt;a href="http://onkayaks.squarespace.com/"&gt;http://onkayaks.squarespace.com&lt;/a&gt; ); i do this to echo this post about Andrew McAuley. I have to admin i didn't know Andrew as a kayaker, but his story made me very sad. Not only because of how it happened, nearby at the end of his incredible adventure, but even for the humen side of this tragedy... I thought about his wife and his little son several times this year, and every time i do so i think this story is very sad. As you know this is the web site of Andrew: &lt;a href="http://www.andrewmcauley.com/"&gt;http://www.andrewmcauley.com/&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s1600-h/Union+Jack.jpg"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7882899187726324867-7460948983141757749?l=larioseakayak.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/feeds/7460948983141757749/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7882899187726324867&amp;postID=7460948983141757749' title='0 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/7460948983141757749'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/7460948983141757749'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/2007/12/andrew-mcauley.html' title='Andrew McAuley'/><author><name>Maurizio</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10940155211315526880</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='25' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/Svr5CltdKoI/AAAAAAAAAMo/eVzgAnGAfks/S220/maurizio.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R1-u1SdD85I/AAAAAAAAACU/A5_OKfJQSBs/s72-c/andrew_mcauley.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7882899187726324867.post-8370264864073618329</id><published>2007-12-11T14:36:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2007-12-11T14:37:22.222+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Hand rolling</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s1600-h/tricolore.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882134840235010" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s200/tricolore.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; L'eschimo: manovra principe del kayakisa, chiodo fisso, ossessione e punto di svolta. Come molti di voi sanno ce ne sono decine e decine di varianti, più o meno comuni, più o meno difficili. Personalmente non sono mai stato un vero appassionato di questa manovra, penso infatti che essere padroni di una variante in modo che non fallisca mai sia più che sufficente... Però, trascinato da amici sobillatori mi sono dedicato al perfezionamento (leggi a imparare da zero) l'eschimo con le mani. Bene, devo dire che in breve tempo sono riuscito a padroneggiare anche questa manovra, a cui per la verità erano anni che ambivo. Il prossimo sarò lo storm roll, che per la verità già mastico un po'.Nei prossimi giorni, se riesco, vi omaggio di qualche video. &lt;div&gt;___________________________________________________________&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s1600-h/Union+Jack.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882542862128146" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s200/Union+Jack.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The eschimo roll is certainly the master manouvre for a kayaker! Every guy that sits in a kayak, sooner or later at least try to learn to roll it. As you know there are several different type of rolls, perhaps more than one hundred. I have never been a fanatic of this manoeuvre, i think i red somewhere that "an expert kayaker is one who can roll at firts attempt in rough seas" and this is exactly wat i tried to do in these years of sea kayaking. However in the past evening spent at the swimming pool, encouraged by some friends, i tried hand rolling. I thought it was a very difficult manoeuvre, but in few attempts i managed to roll my kayak in this way! In he next days i hope to post some videos. The next one is the storm roll (executed in a perfect way!)&lt;a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01s83j6VBI/AAAAAAAAABk/ZLRQ6NIAGwA/s1600-h/Union+Jack.jpg"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7882899187726324867-8370264864073618329?l=larioseakayak.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/feeds/8370264864073618329/comments/default' title='Commenti sul post'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7882899187726324867&amp;postID=8370264864073618329' title='2 Commenti'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/8370264864073618329'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7882899187726324867/posts/default/8370264864073618329'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://larioseakayak.blogspot.com/2007/12/hand-rolling.html' title='Hand rolling'/><author><name>Maurizio</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10940155211315526880</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='25' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/Svr5CltdKoI/AAAAAAAAAMo/eVzgAnGAfks/S220/maurizio.png'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s72-c/tricolore.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7882899187726324867.post-7012730647165927499</id><published>2007-12-09T13:27:00.000+01:00</published><updated>2007-12-09T13:40:05.502+01:00</updated><title type='text'>About Freya / A proposito di Freya</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s1600-h/tricolore.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5137882134840235010" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_BI9GqyzgD8Q/R01slHj6VAI/AAAAAAAAABc/jsXKSP53CDU/s200/tricolore.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Non vi scrivo mai molto a proposito di Freya, nonostante questo visito con una certa regolarità il suo blog. In questi giorni ho letto che ha passato la metà strada e sta risalendo lungo la costa ovest della NZ. Personalmente trovo interessantissimo e molto emozionante poter leggere i suoi progressi in tempo reale, è un po' come leggere un libro mano a mano che viene scritto. Ancora una volta vi lascio il suo link:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://freyahoffmeister.blogspot.com/"&gt;http://freyahoffmeister.blogspot.com/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Delle altre kayakers in procinto di partire per NZ non ho news, appena ne avrò vi aggiorno.

I read on her blog she passed the half way mark, and i think this is already an outstanding acheivment! She is proceeding at an outstanding peace (at least for me!) and i hope everything will continue in this way, even if she has to deal with the easterlies now. As many of you know, this is the link to her blog: &lt;a href="http://freyahoffmeister.blogspot.com/"&gt;http://freyahoffmeister.blogspot.com/&lt;/a&gt; if you don't check it regulary i strongly encourage to do it, reading her post day by day is really amazing. It's like reading a beatifoul book while the author is writing it!&lt;br /&gt;I don't have news from the other to kayakers that are planning to do this trip too.
