For those who want to see the long way Playak has come, this link is fun:

web.archive.org/web/20001018175649/specials.playak.com/

Playak has been around even longer, but before 1998 it didn't have its own domain. It was a part of my personal website, which was on a server that doesn't exist anymore, so 1998 is as far as we can look back.

Just wondering what you guys and girls think about the direction on Playak. Anything really important that we're missing out on? Any stuff I did is absolutely useless? I'd appreciate your opinion.

Cheers,
Jeroen

about 20 hours per week since 1996, and since mid-2002 it's full-time.

hint: i'm always looking for enthusiasts who want to help, e.g. with the galleries, newswatch, links, boats database, forums, or even the articles. now before anybody screams yes, be warned that this means quite a bit of work and all i can offer in return is fame

[color=cyan:8646e2ee42]This truly is an awesome site. The forum's are excellent. Don't know if it's possible to actually improve on them!!
The whole concept of people uploading their own galleries is also a great idea. Very cool to see what other people are up to all over the world. I hope the site never dies!!!!! Thanks...[/color:8646e2ee42] :clap: :dance: :clap: :dance: :clap: :dance: :pray: :clap: :dance: :pray: :clap: :dance: :pray:

awsome sight, when i cant get on the river i just fantasize and talk on playak. In a message board for gear and stuff would be good. Plus maybe a dividing the spots section into different areas and types, like all the playsopts in a certain are and all the waterfalls in a certain area instead of anything anywhere, which is kind of what you ahve now.
