I’ve been paddling for more than 50 years with a variety of water crafts: kayaks, canoes, outrigger canoe, packraft … 20 years ago I started some long distance endurance races: Texas Water Safari, Missouri River 340, Watertribe expedition event in Florida, shorter river races in Colorado, Wyoming, South Dakota and Nebreska, Chattajack in Tennessee. It introduced several specialized boats into my paddling fleet. 10 years ago I started to enjoy stand up padleboard paddling.
So, paddling and being near water is an important part of my life. Training, racing, expedition … However, most of my paddling is related to photography. Here is a short video I just added to my fitover67 Youtube channel – sunrise and morning in Boyd Lake State Park featuring my old SIC X-14.0 paddleboard. I believe it is similar to the newer SIC Okeanos series. Well, the tail of Okeanos is much wider.
These were actually 2 or 3 morning paddling sessions in August 2019. This year Boyd Lake is much lower and my favorite tree there died and is gone.
Please visit my channel. I would greatly appreciate any comments. I am going to create more content like this combining video, still images, music and sounds recorded outdoors. I have also two paddling related blogs: paddling with a camera and fit2paddle.
