:thumbs up:Hey folks; in case you were one of the few unfortunate souls whom missed the world premier of Bryant Burhardt's first film "Paddle California" you can still see it in Oakland or Half Moon Bay. Bryant is the former program director for California Canoe & Kayak's kayak instruction programs, former Kayak Polo National Champion and one of only a few current holders of both Whitewater and Sea Kayaking ACA Instrucor Trainer Certifications. His film is a wonderful compendium of whitewater and sea kayaking from across our great state of California. Bryant is a true paddler and his love for the sport really comes across in this great film. For my part, it was really cool to watch a film all about our home waters and to see places you might actually go one day. 200ft waterfalls are cool....but ultimately none of us will ever really do that sorta thing. No corporate sponcors, no big egos, no hip-hop tunes, no pretenciousness. Add this great film to your collection today; you can pick up a copy of the DVD at any of the California Canoe & Kayak locations or by calling (916) 851-3600 or online at www.purepaddlesports.com.:peace:

Also, if you know or are friends with Bryant....drop him a line and congradulate him on a job well done. And look for more from him in the new year.
