The Toolbox – A regular feature written by Ross Montandon, the assistant editor of the magazine. It provides tips on successful and best practice coaching of canoeing and kayaking. PyB – A section written each month by one of the top coaches at Plas y Brenin, the Welsh national outdoor centre.

River Jabber – One of the longest running features, in this section a prominent canoeist is interviewed on the subject of their favourite river or place to paddle. The questions follow the same pattern each month, asking the best and worst experiences the paddler has had on the river. CKUK Women – Written by Emily Wall,
