My girls were listening to a song one day and I said said to them that it sounded a lot like an old Elvis Costello song. When I got home I looked it up. Apparently there had been people dumping on the artist, but Elvis Costello spoke out and said "It's how rock & roll works. You take the broken pieces of another thrill and make a brand new toy." I reckon Beau would call it recycling. I am pretty sure he likes that.
Hi Hady, Lovely to meet you both as well. Sorry for keeping you awake all night 🤣 I saw your comment when I was away and decided to reply when I got home with a link to some photos. I then forgot so sorry its taken so long. It also turns out I only had 1 photo of you. I've attached it here if you want it. you can just download it from google drive. I'll delete this in a week or so just so it's not sitting in cyber space. See you on the water! Cheers Tim drive.google.com/drive/folders/185ynlMdGSwlmssM6WkeSc3K7J9DwKDBa?usp=share_link
Thats awesome mate , great video and you may have just inspired me to buy a canoe 🤔. Hope Sarah is all better 👍👍🤠. Thanks for sharing a great story. Cheers shad
Thanks Shad! The canoe trip was fun although it may be different with strong winds. So far my experience is good 😂 Sarah is much better now, we’ve just had a good week down the coast. Still couldn’t convince her to paddle though 😂 cheers!
Cheers mate 👍 I never thought I’d like paddles so much! It was very satisfying paddling down the river on it! You should make one 😁 I think I need to build a second one for the passenger up front 😂
Thanks mate, appreciate it! It kind of went a different direction when Sarah was sick. Original I thought it would be more a canoe adventure film where I talk about and use the paddle. Might have to try another time when she is feeling better! Cheers!
Thanks mate, very kind words. As for the paddle weight, I had no idea how thin I should take it or what it should weigh. I may take it down a little more but before I do I’d like to get my hands on another paddle to compare. A lot of my videos are just me tinkering in my spare time. It’s fun to play and learn new things. Thanks for watching!
I’m don’t think it did in his junk paddle video. There was a few rough cuts though 😂. I’ve definitely seen other videos where he makes a paddle and they have broken. He has probably made a few in his time!
G'day mate 👍 We'll that was just "Oarsome" The Kaos of random events leading to fulfilment, accomplishment and new skills is brilliant, My kind of F@ck'n weird 😅 With gratitude P.T🤠
Great video again Mate! Your story is interesting because we are heading to Long Plain next weekend Finally to do some bike packing.....inspired by your videos, so yes, life takes us on great journeys. Yes, we will be copying your journey with the same intensions, but it will be different. Just like every paddle stroke, these journeys keep us moving forward and exploring.
Cheers mate! It looks sexy but is a little heavy. I also didn’t get to use it much because I used the double paddle while Sarah struggled up front! I need to do another trip now and give it a good test! If it’s no good then I’m sure it will look good on the wall!
You actually have a great screen presence, if you could build up your self confidence no telling how far you could go. Big time tv presenter? No trouble
I reckon Beau would be proud!
I love this comment! Simple and puts a huge smile on my face! Cheers mate!
It's definitely a nice paddle.
Beau and yourself are hugely inspiring.
Very kind of you to say that! Cheers!

Recycling ideas, I like that concept!
I think You’re right about Beau, he lives and breathes recycling 👍
Thanks for watching 😁
Glad you enjoy your paddle mate 👏🏽👏🏽 and it was nice to meet you guys 😊

Hello from the USA. Beautiful paddle! Love the bikepacking videos.
Hello 👋
Thanking you!
I’m hoping to get back out on the bike soon! Last trip was November but it feels like a lifetime ago!
Cheers!
Getting stuck in the mangroves, that’s a paddlin’ 🚣♀️
Haha, always good fun foraging through the mangroves 😂
Thats awesome mate , great video and you may have just inspired me to buy a canoe 🤔. Hope Sarah is all better 👍👍🤠. Thanks for sharing a great story.
Cheers shad
Thanks Shad!
The canoe trip was fun although it may be different with strong winds. So far my experience is good 😂
Sarah is much better now, we’ve just had a good week down the coast. Still couldn’t convince her to paddle though 😂 cheers!
Love it! What you and Beau Miles share in common is that great Aussie spirit of giving it a go. Great story!
Cheers mate! Thanks for your support! 😀
You created something positive - without copying. I can't speak for Beau, but I reckon that's how he'd view it. Now I gotta build a paddle.
Cheers mate 👍
I never thought I’d like paddles so much! It was very satisfying paddling down the river on it! You should make one 😁

You managed a good story. Plesent to watch 👍

Cheers!
your paddle did look a bit heavy . I wish i could put a video together as good as that, well done .👍👍
Thanks mate, very kind words.

Thanks for watching!
I remember that video I loved it. Nice find. Nice paddle. Didn't Beau's paddle break?
I’m don’t think it did in his junk paddle video. There was a few rough cuts though 😂. I’ve definitely seen other videos where he makes a paddle and they have broken. He has probably made a few in his time!
Nice Video, hope Sarah is well again!
Trip was 2 weeks ago and she still has a nasty cough but she is heaps better! Next time she can help paddle 😜
G'day mate 👍
We'll that was just "Oarsome"
The Kaos of random events leading to fulfilment, accomplishment and new skills is brilliant,
My kind of F@ck'n weird 😅
With gratitude
P.T🤠
I always love your comments! They’re so good I never know how to reply. I mean, “Oarsome”, “F@ck’n weird”!
The best!
Cheers!

So good to hear! Enjoy your trip and I’m sure it will inspire others. Let’s keep the cycle going!
Awesome comment by the way! Very much appreciated!
👍
Nice story mate, I love a good canoe trip. I think I'll stick to my carbon canoe paddles, but it looks nice and I'm sure it was fun to make.
Cheers mate! It looks sexy but is a little heavy. I also didn’t get to use it much because I used the double paddle while Sarah struggled up front! I need to do another trip now and give it a good test!
If it’s no good then I’m sure it will look good on the wall!
The transformation into Beau's love child is officially complete 😅
Spewing I didn’t grow a big red beard 😂
