From Kayak Wiki
January 1st, 2006.
I installed this Wiki site to allow Playak readers to share their knowledge more directly. I have no idea if this whole concept will actually work in the paddling community, but if it does, I think it can become an extremely useful tool for all.
Let's just see if and how this develops.
Feel free to add your own contributions. Main thing: it should be about sharing knowledge, i.e. Destinations, technique articles etc etc.
The main difference with Playak will probably be that this Wiki is a general purpose knowledge base. Playak focuses more on news, forums and on special applications, such as the calendar and the boats database. Maybe we will at some point put all river descriptions in this wiki.
Enjoy, and please behave :-)

- Have Kayaks, Will Travel: A good day to explore the Chicago shore
- Yesterday's marine forecast went beyond "small craft advisory" to "gale warning," meaning winds between 34 and 47 knots (or 39 to 54 miles per hour). Those winds were coming straight out of the west, so the lake looked flat but we knew that paddling on it would be a challenge.
- Atlantic Paddle Surfing: Harbour Town Summer Paddle Boarding
- esterday was the last of out H20 Sports Free Summer Paddleboarding series. Was a great turn out had a live band cranking out the tunes, BBQ, brew, and lots of stoke. We had over 300 people joined us throughout the five Saturdays this summer to experience the free Paddleboarding event. Its a great feeling to have shared my passion with all the awesome people I've met and knowing I had a small impact on their lives thru paddleboarding.
- Trent Thibodeaux: USNWC Pro/Am freestyle competition
- This year the worldkayak & the usnwc put on its first ever pro/am freestyle competition as a fund raiser for First Descents...a non profit organization that uses the outdoors as a means of therapy and healing for kids with cancer. we raised $1100 dollars for them, which is absolutely amazing. thanks to jason and samantha miller, with worldkayak & rapid-straps, for putting on the best event that the whitewater center has ever had. thanks to all the sponsors that helped with the event as well...
- Dagger Blogs: A Beginner's Guide to Loading Kayaks on Your Vehicle
- Ok, so you just bought a kayak, but now you?re wondering how you?re going to get it home on your car. Or maybe you?ve figured out how to carry one boat, but now you?re headed to the river with four of your friends and you have to carry their boats too. The process of loading boats onto a vehicle can be a bit over whelming at times, especially the first time you try to carry a load you?re not used to.
- OKS Keener: Garb
- Hey its Edward here and I'm going to be talking about Garb today. First off all, Garb is a very fast wave on the Ottawa River and probably the best because it is an amazing experience once you get to surf it. It feels like you are going so fast because the water is rushing under you at a very fast pace.
