      I would like to borrow/rent a helmet, paddle, and skirt (for a <span style=”color: #373e4d;”>pyranha small burn), for this weekend.</span>

      I know giving out gear is scary for people, esp since none of you know me.  I will therefore happily give you a deposit, and if any of the gear is broken or goes missing pay for a replacement.

      I’ve been paddling on the White Nile in Uganda for the past 9 months, and consider myself an intermediate paddler with a solid whitewater roll (also off-side, and back-deck on both sides in the flat).  I’ve been making it down the Nile, through grade III and IV rapids, w/o any swims, and even dry-heading most of the rapids.

      Hey Colleen,

      Are you wanting to paddle the Saint this weekend? I can meet up with you on Saturday morning at the D Bridge take out with my spare helmet/skirt/paddle – also have PFD if needed – currently I am waiting on the river to rise ( as all of us are with fingers crossed ) before confirming that I will be going down – but it looks to be very promising.

        Yes, I’m hoping to paddle this weekend.  That sounds great.  I need to confirm with the person who’s offered me a boat that we’ll be in the same place, but seems like we can make it work.  I’m excited to get back on the water.
