This week’s discussion point from me is about paddling related literature and audio and visual digital media. In the modern day, we’re never too far away from literary influences, from spotting a catchy newspaper headline or getting lost in a great book to information and instant news from perhaps just down the road or as far as the distant reaches of the earth through to ‘how to’ videos for paddle maintenance or personal skill techniques. We can be bombarded by them, choose to ignore them, stick to more ‘traditional’ methods to which we’re more accustomed or embrace modern digital methods to aid our learning and understanding of a subject, for entertainment, to meet our interests or quite simply; to pass some time. In your paddlesport world and enjoyment or development of it – what formats do you prefer? What do you like about them? When do you utilise them? And, what do you gain from them?

Tell us about your favourite, preferred or recommended sources of paddlesport information, learning and entertainment!
