    Hi all

    Im very new and it took me an hour to find how to set up a thread:D.
    Im big into kayaking ang it seems it is hard to come across websites with stuff like semi-dry cags.
    The only good site is the great outdoors (that i can find anyway) and i think with a bit of looking round i can get better prices.
    So if anyone knows a good store near dublin or a good site please let me Know.:)

    ps. im sorry if its in the wrong catagory.

    You can order gear online from these guys or even better drop in for fittings and advice http://www.i-canoe.com/

    You can also keep an eye out for second hand gear here http://www.irishfreestyle.com/tags/forsale

    Great Outdoors is a rip off in my opinion..

    Hope this helps.

    Des at Deep Blue also stocks and sells gear - try their site or drop him a line.
    All high quality gear.

    No worries - they are a great group. Good mix of folk so if you do get out with them you will have a blast as well as maybe picking up some gear.

    Check out the links on his site as well for the ISKA site.

    Check out these guys http://www.kayakhut.com/index.htm

    It's a new site and they have more stock arriving soon.

    I know the guys involved are kayakers, so their advice will be spot on.

    for second hand kit, take a look at the boats section on irishfreestyle
    http://www.irishfreestyle.com/forums/buysell/boats
    its the main spot in ireland for second hand kit.
    for new i would recomend i-canoe. you should also look into joining a club. club members will be able to provide peer mentoring and advice on kit.
