Over the weekend we were joined by two groups from Baldock Canoe Club. One group headed to Pont Cyfyng and Swallow Falls to work on their technique in a challenging and steep environment with David Fairweather. The other group joined myself and Patrick Clissold for a session on the Dee at Llangollen. Despite the heavy frost enthusiasm levels were high and we barely stopped for a breather all day, making the most of the short daylight hours.

A round of applause for a rapid well run.
I have just taken delivery of a GoPro HD, and as soon as I get my computer updated to cope with the work-load of editing the footage I will add a video of the day. The GoPro is a great tool for capturing the action, and should prove a useful coaching tool.
UPDATE!!
I have now cracked the computer conundrum (more coal shovelled into the fire, hamster in the wheel given fresh water etc), here is a short video from the weekend.
