    The classic Green River beating video. Solid entertainment at any time of year.
    But that paddler at 9:30?? Mad props. His fucked-up line went bad from the start. But a successful combat roll in the Polk County Welcome Center?? Major hero material there. Props indeed.

      Thank you for the kind words. It was by far my worst line at go left to date, I took a lick and perfed my eardrum somewhere down there... rolled up with my eyes spinning!

      Ha ha... most boaters by far had clean lines. This is the NASCAR cut like the news shows. Who wants to see the clean lines? If you do my channel has the long cut showing all the clean run as well. This rapid is rated class V+ for a reason...

      @@FastFredRuddock Cool! Heading to your channel to see all those clean cuts! I get vicarous joy out of watching all sorts of paddling except death. Always root for the ones who crash to roll up, and for those who have to bail out to get to dry land safely.

      The spectators at the Green Race are at times over the top with horns and cowbells. The crowd generally exceeds a thousand in the Narrows during the race. The crowd actually can drown out the roar of the class V+ whitewater.
