First training on the Kuchl

When we discussed date with Austrian guys for they training on Kuchl we expect a warmer weather. We were driving on highway and how we were closed to Salzburg we saw more and more snow around us. But we were sill claim and we hoped that at least in village is everything melted. When we came we were shocked. We couldn’t park on the side of road because there were still 30cm of snow!

Friday wasn’t very nice. It was chilly and sometimes raining. We took our dry suits and paddled for 1,5 hour. Just me and Peter, we were quite tired but we enjoyed surfing so much. In the evening we waited for Austrian guys in the apartment. In the morning we woke up to sunny day! Everyone was looking for paddling. After a warm up everyone jumped to water. Two and half hours were guys and one girl paddling in upper wave.

After that we made a break for lunch. Peter showed them a video from paddling and explains what is good and what they need to improve. After lunch we had second session. Guys were getting better and better, sun was still shinning and snow was melting.

At the evening we had good feeling from nice day. But Sunday morning wasn’t sunny. It was raining all day long but it didn’t make us sad. Peter had again two sessions with the guys.

They made a second session in lower wave. Water was rising because of raining and lower wave were getting better. It was colder than Saturday but thanks ours drysuit we stayed totally dry hole day! I love it so much, it is great to know that you can paddle and you will be not ill. But I still hope that I will not to use it long time and I will switch it for short comboJ

See you on water.
