2003! The new Dagger FX 5.7
NEW AERIAL FREESTYLE TECHNOLOGY!

The bleeding edge of freestyle kayaking innovation: it's the first production kayak ever created with adjustable volume. Secure, quick-to-attach/detach volume pods allow you to add or take away displacement. Hood Scoop improves aerial performance by forcing water against its vertical surfaces.
While other boats "pop," the FX explodes. Aggressive rocker break and short length (yeah bloody tiny!) give hull unbelievable bounce on waves for huge flip-turns, Ollies and other wacko aerial tricks. Performance Fit System featuring Precision Adjustable Seat and Thighbraces. AirCORE hip pads and camlock backband.

Hellesdon mill, Norfolk
Hellesdon Mill is a fairly small weir consisting of four gates which work very consistently (in the summer you're more likely to find it working than not). It does however get better after heavy rain when the holes become much smoother and the level beneath the weir deepens. Out of the four gates the only ones which produce anything of any interest are the center two: The main gate (middle right looking upstream) is a small but quite powerful breaking wave which is great for throwing ends both ways. If you're really quick you can even blunt and spin on it. Not very retentive but if you're gentle it will hold you in a side surf. The other gate (middle left looking upstream) produces a really sticky hole which is perfect for pulling endless sequences of ends in the latest boats, but in more 'old school' boats it can be hard because the water flowing under the hole is nowhere near as powerful as the hole in the main gate. Helleson Mill is currently being run at summer flows with its three small arches closed and all flow through the main arch. This gives a more solid pourover in to a single hole sufficiently deep and holding to allow multiple vertical moves. Eddies either side for very easy access back to the hole after a washout. High flows after serious rain wash the whole weir out, but at these times the sluice in the side- channel is usable (paddle downstream 50yds, turn right, paddle up tributary to sluice on the right, 100yds).
Pyranha Spanish Fly
Looking for X Play OC1ing, fast surfing & carving, easy spins and smooth impressive vertical sequences? The Spanish Fly is the World's best freestyle OC1! It's designed to be loose, retentive and have super fast reaction to paddler input. Two time World Champion Eli Herbert is testament to that!
For the more recreational paddler this canoe is great fun and easy to paddle. It has lots of freestyle play potential but, unlike its rivals, can still get you down the river without getting swamped. Spanish Fly is packed with features to make every second out on the water fun and comfortable and it's fitted out ready to go.
Dagger G-Force
(See G-Ride and Kingpin in current models.) 2002's shortest whitewater boat: plays anywhere but doesn't sacrifice comfort' custom fit for the small paddler, short length and blunted, low-volume ends make tricks like space godzillas and barrel rolls a reality with driving edges for control this is a hoot on extremely low-flow creeks and Precision seat and thigh braces + Clutch Outfitting system

Deep Fried Mars Bar recipe
1 deep fried mars bar
10 minutes (5 min prep, 5 min cooking)

1 Mars bar or any chocolate bar of your choice
1 cup plain flour
1/2 cup cornflour
1 pinch baking soda
milk or beer
oil (for deep frying)

1. Chill the chocolate bar by keeping it in the fridge, but don't freeze it.
2. Mix the flours and bicarbonate of soda (baking soda) together.
3. Add milk (traditional) or beer (which gives a lighter result) until you get a batter with the consistency of thin cream.
4. Heat the oil until a small piece of bread will brown in a few seconds, but don't allow to smoke.
5. Remove wrapper from chilled chocolate bar.
6. Coat completely in batter.
7. Carefully lower into hot oil and fry until golden brown.
8. Serve, with ice cream or french fries, if you're so inclined.


S6x is based around the S6 design (which is also available) but modified and aimed more at the upper end of the intermediate to advanced paddlers' skill range who have the ability to drive a boat aggressively through modern dynamic aerial moves.

Uniquely, the s6x offers the ability to change the dynamics of the boat for specific features and paddling styles as required. However, at the moment, because of UK patent application rules Pyranhaare not allowed to show you this key feature until the application is finished.

Pyranha S6
Looking for "Fast, dynamic X Play?" S6 is designed specifically for new school hard core Freestyle paddling - 1.9m, one of the latest design innovation. Use the S6 on steep, dynamic, fast waves, in pourovers and bouncy holes for ollies, hops and big air loops and fast action! It also works great on super shallow spots with unexplored potential. Available in two sizes: the "190" for small to medium paddlers and the "200" for medium to larger paddlers.
The S6 takes the intermediate paddler a stage further in their freestyle boating and lets the more advanced paddler push the dynamic boundaries of the sport. S6 is packed with innovative design features like our Power Pockets, the swallow tail, aggressive rocker breaks and fitted out for rapid adjustment, ultimate comfort and maximum control.
