Susitna River first descent

Thu, 09 Feb 2012 10:21:28 +0000

Somewhere there is a 16mm film of the original. I have posted this in the hope that the owner of the original film will see this. If so, please tell me to take this off, and I hope you post the original. The world should remember these events in river running and the fight to save our wild river experiences. All I know is one of the paddlers was Walt Blackadar and the river was threatened by a dam, hence the film. Some time back in the 1970s. Huge rapids and even bigger balls.

Containing a bunch of epic rapids including a clean 60 footer, the Wainui is pure gold. Join Ben Brown and the Okere Falls massive as they hit the Wainui after a night of heavy rain and get amongst her whitewatery goodness! more at benbrown.co.nz

2010 Green River Narrows Race – Carnage at Gorrilla (Nothing but Crashes in slowmo)

Thu, 22 Sep 2011 10:16:09 +0000

A lot of people run the Gorilla perfectly clean, but that’s not what this video is meant to show. We know you’re probably looking for the race carnage – for the crashes – for the things that make us all scared to run it. Sam Fulbright, who runs PilotCollective.com convinced me to come out. We spaced ourselves at different key spots. I got Gorilla because it was my first time. What a crazy event! If you’re looking for more green river race footage, Sam is going to be the guy.

Kayaking on the Vermillion River pt2

Tue, 05 Apr 2011 10:21:54 +0000

My son and I went kayaking on the Vermillion River, Ontario, Canada. We started at Onwatin in Hanmer and ended at the bridge off a Desmerais. It’s 4.5 Kms straight line, but with all the bends in the river, it’s almost 11kms long. Done on May 8, 2009. No bugs and the weather was beautiful. It’s almost a 2 hr ride.
