Last 2010 Wave Session
First heavy snow fallen in France and Just before prepare the ski for the winter season, We started put away the paddle and boat but the mild spell arrived at the beginning of the last week. The snow melted quickly and the floods stared to run which was a great opportunity for me and some friends, to put up our ass in a freestyle baot for the last time this year and enjoyed an awesome session on the big wave like La Scie and La Malate.

JURASICK PARK
Here are some pics on one of the most trip in the Jura area with some good friends, one German guy Gert Spilker and the russian guys Tomass Manircs and Alex Amarax and it’s was a good opportunity for me to welcome the russian guys to taste the local food for their first time ;-) .
During our four days we did the upper Lemme, l’Anguilon, La Loue, l’Ain, the lower lemme and La Saine rivers and we enjoyed perfect water level on the Lemme and Loue rivers , on the last day we did a waterfall section on the Ain and Lower Lemme river.
The lower Lemme only had a 800m runable section (two water fall and one drop) but We did more hiking and climbing to exit of this section. “just for Fun” ;-)
The last waterfall of La Billaude is not runable !!
Enjoy the pics from Romain Guirao, Gert Spilker and Franck Guilbault.

The area chestnuts
Last week, we were with some friends on the Dourbie river, a great French classical river of class IV V, located in the beautiful Cévennes area.The plan was to kayak the Dourbie from Prunaret village to St Jean de Bruel. The section is not too long (17 kms) but the river in the Valgarnide’s deep gorge never stop. This grade V/ V+ section is one of the most difficult of France. It takes one hour to kayak one kilometer, considering this fact we decided to do it in a multiday trip.
After we looked for over one hour a good take out near St Jean de Bruel, we started to kayak the river at eleven o’clock. All the team knew the first part until the “Bubble Bazar rapid” (le Bazard à bulle in French) wich is the normal take out of the gorge, but the second part has been very rarely paddling and I wonder why ! It is really beautiful…
So, after the “Bubble bazar” rapid we had been paddling during one hour then we make a base camp in the middle of the wood where the floor looked flat.
We make a fire, then we picked up some chestnuts in the wood in order to make a good Apero with some the ;-). The end of the second gorge until St Jean de Bruel is more easy, ten kilometers of class IV V in an awesome parent rock environment, still there are always some good, technical and difficult rapids.
It’s under the sun that Valentin Corote, Valentin Grolemund, Raphael Thiebault and Stephane Pion spent two days on the one of the most beautiful and technical river of the Cévennes area in the middle South of France.
If you are interested to come, you can check a usefull guidebook called “Kayak Cévennes” written the local paddler Henry Denis.

RUSSIA 2010
During one month I have enjoyed the most spectacular scenery on the Altay region close to China, Kazakhstan and Mongolia.
It is through these landscapes in the middle of nowhere that the ADIDAS team paddled on the most mythical rivers of grade IV V V volume.
A first time for me to be able paddling such biggest rivers, live unforgettable stories
in a corner of Russia where the wild life of peoples and villages still reigns.
We crossed the Altay area to get the most beautiful and largest rivers like
the Chulishman, Argut, Bashkaus, etc. ....
Some rivers can be done in one day, but most require several days and that is why
we had two mini vans 4X4 to go in this desert of mountains on dirt tracks, sand,
gravel or mud. Not forgetting the two drivers and our guide Tomass Manics (Member of Team Adidas) that very familiar with the roads, stores supplies, local laws, the behavior of
people and of course the rivers to guide us for the better through these vast extended.
A great trip and great time kayaking with some pictures and scary stories!
