  • Episode 19, Fi and James Corfe

    This week we chatted to Fi and James Corfe. These two picked up paddling and ran with it! From their beginnings around the Isle of Man, to circumnavigation of both islands of New Zealand and now rounding Cape Horn, they've been pushing their boundaries as far as possible. 


    Lovers of type two fun, Fi and James are always looking for new expeditions and to explore new places. They're willing to endure all the hardships that the environment can throw at them in order to experience moments of bliss in places seldom visited by human beings!

  • Episode 17, Jamie and Kyle

    This week on the podcast, we chatted with Jamie and Kyle, two young, up and coming white water kayakers. The two lads have both had their plans upturned and their lives changed by the pandemic and we chatted about how this has changed their view on paddling both personally and professionally.


    It was great to chat to some folks who are fresh into the outdoors, and who are super stoked on boating! As usual we cover how they got into the sport, and see just how far they've pushed themselves in the past couple of years. We also talk fears, uncertainty and aspirations.

    You can find Jamie at @jamandhiscam on Instagram

    Kyle is @kr.kylerodger on instagram, and https://youtube.com/channel/UCM-j_0k8tvFE18ufycxCCsQ for his youtube channel.

  • Episode 14, Darren Clarkson

    This week we chatted to Daz. In his own humble words, Daz is just a bloke who goes kayaking with his mates.


    In reality, Daz is a bit more well known than that. He has paddled every river which descends Everest, as well as K2, many of them solo. He spends a load of time paddling enormous solo runs out in Nepal, Bhutan and India, but he's equally happy paddling a local Welsh drainage ditch with his mates while he's in the UK.

    The Himalayas aren't just a kayaking destination for Daz, they're home. He's been living, working and playing over there for more than 20 years, and his company Pure Land Expeditions is a staple of British Himalayan adventures. If you fancy a trip to one of those incredible countries, follow the link below and find out more. For everything else, well, we'll let Daz explain.
