Kayakers should never complain about the weather. The roots of our sport of course come from parts of the world where cloudy and 40f would be downright tropical! The picture above is from a collection of kayak images at the library of congress. There are a couple of this guy. One is a nice brace with his “canoe” paddle and another is a roll. One image I found interesting was a shot of 20 or more kayaks gathered in Berlin for the 1936 Olympics. I guess I never realized there were that many German kayakers in 1936. Maybe G-Style has been around much longer than we thought.
