Yorkshire Single Bladers Yorkshire Single Bladers (YSB) is an informal group of paddlers from around the region. There is no formal structure, just a group of paddlers with a common interest in open canoeing. The aim is for trips to be organised by members of the group and newcomers are welcome to join us. We are not a training group and assume all who paddle with us have basic competency. The purpose of this site is to act as a vehicle for you to make contact with other paddlers. Open canoeing is poorly represented in the region, and we are drawn by a common interest with an aim of sharing of knowledge and experience. The group is currently being co-ordinated by John Lucas. If you are interested in paddling with the group, or even running a trip for the group, please contact us by email at mailto:%
