Blood, guts and gore...maybe!

This years line up of films for the first time branches outside the realm of whitewater kayaking and into other disciplines. Most noticeably this year we have the addition of our first ski film by Rage Films. I couldn’t possibly do these guys enough justice. Slick camera work, seamless editing and some of the craziest footage I’ve ever seen. Seeing is believing. We also have our first surfing film entry by Naomi Britton, “Silver Safari”. This film chronicles 40 years of Irish surfing and will be launched Paddy’s weekend. Be one of the first to see it at this year’s film festival.

We also have a great selection of both Irish and international kayaking films, shot around the globe. There has definitely been a noticeable trend of Irish entries getting better and better. And this year hasn’t disappointed. There are some great entries from Irish paddlers and colleges. Doin' us proud lads, and lasses.
