With the boom over and attrition from the grim reaper on the other end as well maybe sea kayaking will again return to being a sport where one doesn't have to compete for a camp spot. Maybe I can again enjoy a wilderness experience without having to burn so much fossil fuels to get to it before the reaper gets me. As for the shrinking WW demographic. Would you take up a sport, even if you were a wild and stupid testosterone charged young man, that seems, from the media portrayal, to be mostly throwing yourself off of high waterfalls without a parachute and trying to miss the rocks far below. Remember, wind surfing. It was once very popular too. Matt Broze www.marinerkayaks.com >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Matt, You will never face the grim reaper. You will kick his ass, and report back to us. No exclamations or emoticons necessary. All the best, Rob G By the way, if you do face unduly campsite pressure, tell them what you did to the formerly grim, but now corrected reaper. ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com. *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
