CUMEC Magazine eh?

What is CUMEC?

CUMEC is a new whitewater magazine based around Kiwi & Aussie paddlers. Looking to promote the sport of Kayaking and encourage environmental awareness throughout our countries.

We are new to this publishing game but definetely not new to the world of whitewater. We are working at getting a team of writers & photographers who choose to kayak as a lifestyle. Some of us choose to paddle 20 days a year, others over 300! Yet we are still linked by a common passion for whitewater.

Why CUMEC?

Standing in a kayakshop or bookstore scanning the shelves I consistently failed to find material about my own country. I asked around and others had the same problem. What was available was from Canada, France & America. Places that are outside of my reach, I wanted to know about the Kiwi Paddlers & the Kiwi Spots.

After discussing with many friends & businesses, I realised that there was an opportunity for a new fresh look at kayaking. A magazine that promoted Kiwi & Aussie paddlers whether they were kayaking at home or afar.

Now we getting closer to a 1st issue, I realise how expansive the kayaking community is and how a magazine can be a positive tool for the promotion of our sport.

I choose to run with the idea for two reasons:
1. A passion for paddling & the people involved in the sport.
2. To give something back to the sport that has fueled my desire for adventure.

How?

Issue 1 of CUMEC Magazine is going to be distributed free of charge throughout NZ & Australia.
Wondering how to get a copy? We'll keep you posted....

That's all for now.
