Come on people, post pics!

The visual aspect is what got me hooked on open boating initially. It was a advert of a bearded guy in a Mad River Outrage, approaching the camera mid rapid. It was at that point I knew Cboatering is where its at.

That MRC advert was from the early 90's, if anyone has a copy of that I would SOOOO love to see it again

I've got a few, due to me being reasonably photo-shy, they represent the core of pictures of myself too :/

Here's a sequence of me running a not very clean 20'[ish] drop on the upper morriston; it misses a key frame...

Right here, should be a frame of me in mid air, having just leaned out into thin air expecting my paddle to support me

, explaining why the photo a second after landing shows an uber low brace.

Then a load from a day I spent mucking about on the Garry

Looking pensive in the meltdown.

Two rather weak mystery attempts:

Testing out my new (at the time) Cagdeck:

and inexplicably, here's one of me displaying the world's finest soft-drink under my decklines (and possibly the world's shaggiest hair round the edges of my helmet

)

Here's the odd ones out I found on facebook whilst looking for my Uganda Pictures.

Sneaking in paddling between rafting sessions.

Borrowing the Force Turret Prototype:

and wussing out on a hammer (freewheel).

and realising my straps double up for the walk out!

Uganda:

First rapid!

And at Nile Special (also a tasty beer!)

Finally, my favourate Uganda picture, mainly because it's in the university prospectus with an interview I gave...

My friend in the foreground was cropped out, but my nipple and curious expression remained; they were only willing to accept it because it was the only recent photo showing my face I had.
