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 9.64 (Ramsden Dock ) so there should  be a bore wave???

HW is at 13:21 Barrow so aim to be on the water at Arnside at 10:00

Should be back in Arnside by 12:00

River or sea kayaks.

Bring a Helmet which must be worn on the return to Arnside

If intending to ride borewave 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.
