bonjour! sorry this isnt in french, but i know only a bit. I am travelling to france from new zealand for a paragliding trip from 4th september until 26th september. I would love to arrange a paddling day or two with some french paddlers while im there. I thought that i could do an 'exchange' where if any french paddlers come to new zealand in the future i would have them to stay, get them in all the gear and take them to some of my local rivers (hurunui, rangitata, buller, etc). one problem is that i cant bring over any gear because im maxed out on baggage limits with my paraglider. Anyone interested? If so, get in contact (the.scrubba@gmail.com) before the dates above and i'd love to hook up. chouette!

Whereabout will you be ?
What is your paddling level ?
What sort of paddling would you like to do ?

thanks for the reply! i will be in the rhone-alps area; i paddle up to grade 5 and have been paddling for about 10 years; i like harder stuff but prefer playboating on grade 3-4.
