Four Mile Bridge.

So here we are in freezing January 2011. Time to take the coldest shower possible. Let's head out to Four Mile Bridge and see just how cold and wet we can get. There is a kind of madness when it comes to whitewater kayaking. Personally I prefer the comfort and ease of a sea kayak, rock hoping my way around the coastal shores of Anglesey. But then it takes all sorts to make a kayaking club interesting, and boy! do these guys know how to keep it interesting... Paul Mattock

Playboating in the surf...


Most white-water kayakers prefer to stick to the rivers. That way, when it all goes belly up, they can quickly drag themselves onto the safely of the river bank and watch their precious equipment go sailing down the Swanee. But Cybi Kayakers are made of sterner stuff than that, throwing caution to the wind they throw themselves into a gale force wind, and seas that even fish would drown in. Here's testament to the sheer folly and fun that Cybi Kayakers get up to here on Anglesey.

Welcome To Stanley...

It’s about time that the white-water paddlers at Cybi Kayakers got a mention on their own Blog site. So on a beautiful sunny Friday evening they all headed off to where the water rushes through… Stanley Embankment. Jay, Buddug, Simon and Dan met up with a couple of fellow paddlers, Ievan and Paul, who were already on the water and all enjoyed a couple of hours playing in the waves.
Here are some pics that tell their own story, along with a video clip that says it all.
(Completely mad, the lot of them!)
