How Men Develop Feelings

Mal día en las Torrenteiras

After the excesses of the holidays finally I had a day off to return to river. I met with Thomas and Charles, who on Saturday had two sections of Deza, to give Sunday at Torrenteiras Ulla.

The truth is that I would have preferred something a little friendlier to regain fitness, especially since the road was able to see how the water levels were above what I expected.

get together on the landing after we moved and pull with the van of Ondabrava to Frádegas spa. There will not embark without doing a photo illustration of what we think about the fishermen.

No comment;)

future meeting deceased

After a hundred yards of class II we find the first serious rupture . Thomas landed and told us the area that meet the fast. It was a step through without problems, except that Thomas Creek candeleteo the 225 with a corresponding shift. Seeing this, my suspicions were confirmed that the flow no mood for jokes.

The Candeleto step

little late in arriving in the area, developing the competitiveness of the end.

Early competitive ramps water

final ramp was very constant and showed several spots. Carlos said the pots and I have a slipstream which is near the end of the fast while Thomas opened quickly displaying a perfect trajectory.

Thomas, the Pro

I followed him, but I relaxed after the slab and ended up jumping over a stone cross after the jump. I took the stop to take a look at what went on and finished the step. Carlos preferred Porter and accusing the fatigue he had rowed on Saturday.

Shortly before reaching the 5 + Carlos missed an Eskimo and ended up swimming. The rest of us throw a pass without looking for help. Luckily our friend and had "self-rescue." Seeing that both the deceased and I were not for frills decided to port the following two steps pull, stepping the foot of the waterfall below.

With Brown on the back: O

Ramps still had nothing to do with the other times he'd fallen this section remain fairly constant. This plus the fact that I did not go down the day he stumbled, ongoing support and not to overturn. Yet at the end of a ramp face-down finished solving the eskimo quickly. Carlos was not so lucky after getting caught in a slipstream and went swimming at the entrance of the last five. He got out of the river just before jumping by the way, the Nomad very "guiadiña" her, she waited in the pool after the slide have been done without a crew. Thomas and I looked over but in the end neither had the courage to do so I decided to port. In the porter a good host I stuck with the boat to slip the shoulder, with the other evidence that was not my day.

Carlos made the next step, hitting the track and still ended up playing a stone. Thomas and the porter who had carried a whip in the back in an encounter with a rock in a previous step and I to follow in my tone to emulate.

The narrowing also for another day, making the ramp of the mill to finish the fall with a Quick couple of low ranking.

As things stand, and unless last-minute surprises, it seems that for Kayak Extreme III will be water, which will have to be careful with the last ramp of the competition as a swim may be, least painful.

I myself would have preferred to return to a path less Piggy Christmas break. Let a Sister or a classic Deza had enjoyed the more than Torrenteiras.

El Landro Aitor Arce

On Friday they still had no idea of \u200b\u200bwhat would do on Saturday received a call from Asturian rivers Aitor wondering, as he and Julia ( Speedkayak ) were in the principality. As I of this autonomous community I have no idea, derivatives to Thomas which we ended up rolling them all to make the Landro.
Ourol
On the way stopped at As Pontes to pick up José Miguel. When we finally reached our destination only Carlos the rest would be delayed.


Preliminary

After changing, we performed the shuttle run and we went into the River. After warming in a hundred yards of Class I / II found that floods had cleared a sifonazo had in the past that went down this stretch. The arrival of the mini-dam was a porter (easy on the left) and the beginning of the fun.


The dam portage


fun begins

The gap is growing and the steps of Class III is still giving a good continuation to the decline. We sail eye until a break made us lose sight of the River. It was a leap that is turning left. What we were doing all recorded on video while Aitor and Germany we immortalized with the camera. It was followed by a step at other times had to do it the right receptions stone, but this time, the result of the flood, the trunk was gone that prevented it from the left. Mounted securely and returned to solve all smoothly.


opened new paths


Continuity and drop

After a few ramps to hit view again quickly re-scan. At this time a long, paved ramp followed by a small oasis and a series of leaps punctuated by puddles. Juanjo overturned on the ramp and swam. Carlos was fine with rope rescue and pulled him out of the water quickly, but unfortunately Juanjo had taken a big hit in the coccyx and hand. Fortunately was able to continue without problems. One end of the rope ended up under a rock and I had to get me to the river to disengage. In rivers so stoned as it is important to ride well as assurances by continuity swims can be long and painful.

Then we would face at a pace that is characterized by a stone slope to the left side was a tree. Opened Aitor showing the rest of the course which was good. Land touches made the step to carry the "P" on this occasion also siphon stone had gone through another tree.

The next step is one that after entering the left has a giant mushroom species. Carlos was dislocated and faced a small step back by an inadvertent stall Stern with the Nomad. In fact except Aitor and Jose Miguel (any problems) the rest turn more or less voluntarily to the right past the water mushroom.


In stone!

In a minor leap, Thomas had to leave the dugout to stay flush. I too underwent the fixed but I got free myself without having to pull the cover.

Another step that gave us joy was an "S" in which he had to go skipping a stone immediately afterwards turn left. Both paddlers "guests" turned, eskimo quickly, to finish the step. I do not fine tune the output of the "S" playing in a rock and finishing step back. At this point we use to account for some fruit and chocolate because we had about three hours of descent.





River some surprises in store for us as a siphon huge tree in the same ramp that is the stone trap. Then came a diagonal step that is skipped by the center-right. In this jump, I've always played in some rock-except this time I got a slab slides perfectly, landing cleanly on the mattress.

The next stop would be to explore the staircase and the passage of the "mommies." We set up a strong security steps to prevent anyone was going to swim for the next step.




The staircase steps flanked him playing the passing of the "mommies" Aitor opened it, turning before crossing the last step, solving an Eskimo after emerging at the reception. I would imitate him, turning on the spot. The water pressure was so strong that I thought I left the covers but I had major problems right behind the dugout. José Miguel did a film like Aitor had rallied for a second attempt.

Beatdown From here the river loses slope and steps are easier. Fruit of confidence and exhaustion I poured on a ramp had no major problems except a little depth. I started to take this gig from blows to the head I could not eskimo and (much to my regret) covers pulled. The swim was at the end of my compis step and I picked up the wreck and accessories such as camera and rope rescue. After draining, I took the helmet (it premiered) to see who had the party presenting a break of about six inches in the front. As I comment on Carlos had traveled a considerable distance upside down (subject was not conscious). The truth is that they had to leave my pride quickly buried in a very low regard, this being my second swim of 2006.

to the landing there was nothing worth mentioning were it not that Juan would stick too a swim in a place "stupid" as he told us, but to him, the river did not apply the "English discipline" this time.

finish the descent, Ourol chop something, while his recordings Aitor taught us Teixuga concentration. Both he and Julia liked the river, either on their steps well for its magnificent landscape, formed by a beautiful forest of deciduous trees.

They both accompany Thomas and Carlos on Sunday to drop the classic Sister. I fell off this fall to have another commitment. Anyway I have to say it was a pleasure to navigate to the side (and try to learn something) paddler with such a level.

Here is a little guide (updated since last fall) of Landro:

Embarkation: On the bridge of the road from Minot.
Landing: Gromeneiro
Bridge Class: IV (4 +) 1 dam 1 p. O scale IV/4/B Addison
Length: 6 km
Comments: The gap deepens as we go down by the river. " Steps have good continuity. Lots of trees and traps any stone. Happy holidays
