Details

According to Billy Connelly “There is no such thing as bad weather, just inappropriate clothing”. Paddling through the winter is great fun as long as you're dressed to match the weather conditions. And good kit does not have to be expensive.

💧 The Talk 💧

Want to keep paddling fit this winter? It doesn't have to be expensive to get the right kit!

We're paddle all winter which is great fun as long as you're dressed to match the weather conditions.
So let's walk you through all the clothing and equipment options, bring what you have and we'll bring a whole bunch of clothing for you to try on.

💧 Bring, Buy & Sell 💧

You have cold/wet weather kit but aren't sure if it's right...

  • Bring kit you have at home from paddling, sailing or wet walks and we'll see if you have what you need and if anything is missing.
  • Try on other people's kit to see what fits your body.
  • Buy second hand kit.
  • Sell your old kit.

💧Please note💧
Wet suits are not suitable for winter paddling, so please don't buy one, just come and try different gloves, socks, boots, dry suits, over trouser etc and find what is most comfortable for you, we all feel the cold differently.

Instructions

Just sign up and bring your kit to share what works for you and any kit you would like to sell.

We won't be having new kit for sale but will let you know where to get the kit you like from.
