Huw Miles posted a discussionNepal Riverboarding Expedition
This November, a team of 10 Riverboarders are heading to Nepal for a Expedition on 2 rivers that have never been riverboarded before. We're looking for sponsorship to cover the cost of logistical support. We've already put in a heap of our own money & are now looking to cover the last few nuts & bolts to put this exped together. This is where you can help. We're not asking for money but we do need the greater Riverboarding community to get behind this amazing project to convince…See More

Hey guys, I thought I'd pick your collective brains about various magazines or TV channels or online blogs etc that have featured riverboarding in the passed or you think might be receptive to doing something either now or in the future. I seem to remember seeing magazine articles and some short videos from TV shows on here before I think.... Anyhoo as some of you may know some riverboarders and myself will be heading out to Nepal this november to try and be the first team to ever riverboard…See More
Huw Miles posted a blog postThe Legacy of 2009...
A few weeks ago I received a friend request on facebook from a Ecuadorian guy called Victor. I could not place the name or the face although having spent a long time in Ecuador in 2009 I concluded it was conceivable that I had met him and simply forgotten; his profile picture was after all a guy in raft. Despite my suspicions I added him as a friend and vowed to find out who he was.

Huw Miles replied to Barry Welling's discussion 2011... where would you like to see Riverboarding go this year?"Good discussion topic!
For the sport I'd like to see it grow in the UK. There's now a hydrospeeding operation in cardiff on an artificial course which is cool and I'm hoping they'll be some riverboarding at the new white…"
Huw Miles replied to BrianJ's discussion Guiding in Costa Rica"Hi Brian
Did you get out to Costa? I'm hoping to lead a charitable trek out to costa rica next year and will try to extend my stay to run some rivers out there. Would be awesome to hook up with another riverboader out there.
cheers
Huw"

Hey guys, I'm gunna be leading an expedition to Nepal later in the year and might have the opportunity to extend my stay after waving good bye to my clients at the airport. If i can pull this off I'm gunna take my riverboarding gear on the road once again and bomb a few rivers out there. I seem to remember reading something somewhere about an expedition a few years ago through Nepal on hydrospeeds. I was wondering if anyone from that trip (or any other trip to Nepal for that matter!) might be…See More

- She's still a beauty. I'm still thankful every day that I get to be guiding for a living. Training course starts on the 28th. Can't wait to have my own crew. Woo! How's the UK treating you? A little bird told me you might be back next year. Is that true?

- That would be pretty sweet, eh! Where have you been working? What are you doing for them? What quals are you doing? SPA, ML and paddling stuff? Good times! I'm considering getting an NZ climbing Quallie when I have the money.

- Is that your ML training or assessment? The TYF thing sounds sweet. You've landed on your feet there mate! Loadsa quallies!...I got a recruitment e-mail off of PGL the other day. They want chief instructors...I was almost tempted...Then I though....NO! Haha!

- Alright bruv?
I took out Delilah for a bit of a surf today. I thought she might be getting lonely. Do you mind if I take her out every one in a while over the season? She surfs pretty sweet, eh?
