8. Meet to share lifts at: none needed

9. Anything else:  It’s tricky for first timers as a very powerful wave over shallow water, therefore it’s easy to get tripped up 

Tide height is 9.83m (Ramsden Dock ) so there may be a good bore wave.

HW is at 12:06 Barrow so aim to be on the water at Arnside at 08.50

Should be back in Arnside by 11.15

River or sea kayaks. 

If intending to ride bore wave must have a solid first time roll.

You can join us and just follow the bore wave if you don't wish to surf on it 

Not suitable for novices.

Please read notes re river trips here:

I am happy to co-ordinate and lead the trip. However, as we will be a team, we are jointly responsible for each other’s safety on the water.

Please ensure you carry the correct kit for the trip you are attending.
