on a side note, just got a box of the latest Kayak Angler magazines. I'll bring some down if anyone wants a copy. Just took a quick glance and saw Wali & Bsteves.

Will any demo paddles be for sale? Any luck contacting the Werner rep?

I need my own paddle, ha!

[update pending trade]

It's probably not what you're looking for in a first paddle, but I have an AT Fishstix that I won at the Pacific City tournament last year.  I have only paddled with it a couple times and It's really, really nice.   However, I also have a high end Lendal through my pro deal which obligates me to use it and not the AT.

http://www.atpaddle.com/Sporting/Sporting.html

It retails for $349 but I'd be willing to depart with it for $250 OBO.   I suppose I should post this in the classifieds section.

Anyway, I'll bring it and my Lendal to the paddle clinic for everyone to check out.

My wife and I are planning to share our kayak for the paddling class.  Do you think this will work out ok?

tell your dad to come on out. The list is there just so I can keep a ballpark estimate of how many people are coming. the more the merrier....

just heard back from the Werner rep, and I'll be grabbing some paddles from him as well. Anyone have anything in particular they want to see from them? I'm a bit out of touch on their lineup these days.

Have fun this weekend everyone.  Big ups to Brian for putting this on.

Can you all do me a favor?  At the end of the session, can you dump your self in the water and do some self rescues.  It's a practice session, may as well practice!!!
