The revamped cocktail menu, carefully curated with a blend of down-to-earth classics and exclusive in-house specials, will tantalise the tastebuds of seasoned enthusiasts and newcomers alike.

or something that originated from surfers in the seas around Hawaii, you wouldn’t think that Stand Up Paddleboarding (SUP) would work as well in an urban environment. Particularly in an where you have to take at least an hour’s drive just to get a glimpse of the ocean. And even then, the North Sea is a far cry But for the last six years, SUP has found

the Outdoor City initiative, sessions were set up by DC Outdoors at Victoria Quays where willing participants could get to grips with their equipment in the canal basin before heading off down the Tinsley Canal. Not only has it become a great way to learn a new activity but is a unique and fantastic way to explore the city. DC Outdoors offer half-day taster sessions as well as full-day courses and

fortnightly on weekends during the spring/ summer season (March to October) and includes all equipment hire as well as expert instruction from the DC Outdoors team. “Victoria Quays is a great spot,” said Dan Crawford, who set up DC Outdoors in 2018. “We’ve got plenty of space to run the sessions and it’s easy to head down the canal from there.” www.vibesheffield.com

DC Outdoors’ SUP sessions can take up to ten people at any one time but Dan tries to limit numbers to six as this gives a better ratio between boarders and instructors. They are open to all levels of ability and all equipment is provided – boards, paddles, buoyancy aids, wet suits (if required). “The half-day taster is a great way to try Stand Up Paddleboarding and once you’ve had a quick introduction to the will get to grips with how to control the board whilst kneeling,” explained Dan. “Once we’ve got that sorted we’ll look at getting stood up – it is called stand up paddleboarding. When you’re feeling

comfortable, you’ll put your new-found skills to use and go on a small journey.” The progression from these taster sessions is a full-day ‘Discover’ session, which adds a bit more in-depth instruction on stroke technique and ways to be more And what happens if you fall in? “You’ll get wet!” laughs Dan. “If you fall in, we’ll get you back on board. The canal basin is 14ft deep and the canal between six and eight feet. Although the water might look a bit murky it’s clean enough.” Stand Up Paddleboarding is just one of many activities Dan offers; he set up DC Outdoors with the aim of creating and

providing bespoke adventure holidays. These SUP sessions, along with canoeing and kayaking, are part of his ‘off the shelf’ activities which he runs on a regular basis. Although DC Outdoors is based in location, he can take you to the perfect venue based on your activity choice and location, whether that’s the city centre, From a young age, Dan knew that he wanted to work as an outdoor instructor. Having visited outdoor activity centres with youth groups, and taken a walking holiday with school, Dan joined his local climbing wall in preparation and waited for the for the opportunity to start his instructor training. At 17, Dan was accepted early on to a two-year instructor training course at the Frontier Centre in Northamptonshire, where he learnt his trade. Developing intensive skills training in archery, climbing, canoeing, kayaking, team building and leadership, Dan put this into practice with the wide and diverse groups coming through the centre. 31

After gaining more experience and "! a freelance career, working with outdoor centres throughout the area as well as some ! and Wales. Having gained a great reputation for high quality delivery, the opportunity arose for Dan to take on a new role as head of paddlesport at Ulley Activity Centre – a centre run by a school academy. Dan delivered Outdoor GCSEs in Climbing, Archery, Orienteering, Hillwalking, Canoeing and Kayaking as well as KS3 enrichment sessions and after-school clubs. After three years, Dan’s adventure ended with voluntary redundancy as the education "! At a crossroads in his career, Dan decided to set up DC Outdoors and has not looked back. He’s happiest when he’s out on the water and in addition to the SUP

sessions, he also runs regular canoe and kayak sessions too. The most popular course is the ‘Zero to Hero’ kayak course, which can take you from being a complete novice to having ! rapids. “We start with how to turn the kayak moving forward in a straight line,” explains Dan. “We’ll do this while taking a short trip along the Cromford Canal, for example. “After lunch we’ll move to the River Derwent, where we’ll look at the skills ! whitewater. If you want to be ready for a whitewater adventure, this is the perfect starting point.” DC Outdoors is not restricted to waterbased activities but can run rock climbing, abseiling and weaselling sessions too. “The Peak District is a climber’s paradise,” said Dan. “Climbers come from

all over the world to climb on the famous gritstone edges of Stanage, Burbage, Froggatt and the Roaches, to name a few. When you book a climbing activity with DC Outdoors, these sublime rock faces are our playground!” After working and delivering outdoor sessions for over 20 years, Dan has had his fair share of bumps and scrapes and can count a dislocated shoulder, fractured ‘biggest’ injuries, not that he’s been deterred. “It’s all par for the course really,” he added. “Most of them have come from climbing; you’re much safer on the water!” If you’re keen to see another side to perfect time to grab a paddle and hit the canals.
