Kit I use.

I'm often asked about what kit I use and so I have created a list. Clothing, accessories and camera stuff.

I have various sponsorships and Ambassador roles for a number of companies, I receive no cash reward for these business arrangements but I do benefit from free kit and advertising as a result. These companyies, who I highly recommend are listed here:-

Charlie Mcleod

Sporting Ambassador

Charlie McLeod’s heritage is firmly rooted in sport, from open water swimming and trail running to canoeing and surfing. So it was only natural that we were going to develop products to support and aid these tough outdoor activities

Insta360 (action cams and accessories)

Team member for Insta360

Discount code - please contact me for a discount link

In 2015, we founded Insta360 because we wanted a better way to share experiences. We’d been searching for a 360 camera that would allow us to share great moments with people anywhere in the world — not just snapshots or partial glimpses, but full, immersive moments. When we couldn’t find the right gear to realize this vision, we decided to build it ourselves. We haven’t stopped building since.
