Last Sunday while I was in the water, my son Giulio took me a few photographs. I was surprised how many good shots he fired! Julius was very good, I'm proud of him. Now finally I have someone to photograph me in action.
Finally, it is my new kayak Thae Marine, to be exact is the model LC Greenland. It will be the tool that I will use more closely to practice the art of rolling Greenlandic style or simply G-Style. It is catchy, aggressive enough, but with a very slender line, after a careful choice of the name (like my friend Luisella says, like a shamanistic ritual), I and my children have called it "Mako". Now some little work of improvement and then the launch!
Era l'anno 1981, l'anno in cui i miei genitori mi regalarono un libro ed io per decenni ho sfogliato quelle pagine che mostravano gli Inuit coi loro stupendi Qajaq, geniali e tenaci riuscivano a costruire con poco, anzi quasi nulla, degli stupendi strumenti da sopravvivenza.
Sono passati 30 anni, ma io non ho mai smesso di sognare ed ecco qua il mio Qajaq, esso si chiama Barracuda e domani insieme solcheremo ufficialmente l'acqua!
It was the year 1981, the year that my parents gave me a book for decades and I've leafed through those pages showed that the Inuit with their beautiful Qajaq, brilliant and tenacious could build with little in fact almost nothing, some wonderful tools to survive.
It's been 30 years, but I never stopped dreaming and here's my Qajaq, it is called Barracuda and tomorrow will sail along the water officially!

Era l'anno 1981,
l'anno in cui i miei genitori mi regalarono un libro
ed io per decenni ho sfogliato quelle pagine
che mostravano gli Inuit coi loro stupendi Qajaq,
geniali e tenaci riuscivano a costruire con poco,
anzi quasi nulla,
degli stupendi strumenti da sopravvivenza.
Sono passati 30 anni,
ma io non ho mai smesso di sognare
ed ecco qua il mio Qajaq,
esso si chiama Barracuda
e domani insieme solcheremo ufficialmente l'acqua!
