Re: Slalom Club Gear Sale
Heya Doc
I was just wondering why the club is selling all this gear off. I can understand getting rid of the 4m boats but are we not going to need all the 3.5m, paddles and decks for when the juniors leave the pool for the summer?
Thanks
Tom

Re: Slalom Club Gear Sale
Hi Doc.
Could you be more specific to what 3.5m K1 boats you are selling? You say you are not selling the 3 caimen boats. so does that mean all the other K1 _3.5 m boats are for sale ?
A guide price would be useful for all the boats that you are selling ?
Can you post guide prices for the boats and the K1 Paddles ?
What price are you selling the Sandiline decks for ?
There may be some kids in the National Squad interested in this equipment.
A number of us are members of WWKC and there was no consultation with members that are canoe slalom paddlers or have children involved in slalom as to why you are selling this equipment. It would be helpful to know what the long term strategy of WWKC is in relation to Slalom. Why are you and WWKC selling Slalom gear? Will you replace the sold items with new equipment ?
