I'm Back!! 256 Days After Quitting Kayaking

It's been 256 days since I had to stop paddling due to a shoulder injury. It's my longest break from paddling in over 30 years. But this weekend I took advantage of the mild temperatures and high water on the Ottawa River to get my paddle wet once again at 'The Wall' at Bates Island in the City of Ottawa. Wow... was it ever great to be back on the water, and back on a surf wave... Gear I'm using Kayak: Pyranha Ripper 2 - https://www.pyranha.com/kayaks.php?ka...
