  • WEST CHERRY ONE DAY
    West Cherry is one of my favorite sections in CA. It’s got one of the most iconic granite slides to start the day, followed by hours of nearly endless whitewater. It’s got a few more portages than most runs, but you are rewarded with so many epic slides, boofs, and rapids. Packing it all into one day, is so epic. I was stoked to lead a crew of 9 people in there with only 1 other person that had done it before, and I think they all were fired up!

    You are a machine. This is awesome. John Grace was an absolute legend to fire that slide up for the first time!

    Wow Dane, I think you have a photographic memory to remember all those lines for so many different rapids! One of the excellent reasons I love watching your kayaking, is that You take us to amazing beautiful places not all of us could go and experience. Riding safely on your helmet and hearing the rushing water and getting sprayed in the face is a very surreal experience.
    Thank You for sharing all your adventures with us, Stay healthy and safe!

    Entropy. Life is entropic. Kayaking can be entropic too, but in a much more fun way.
    Beautiful scenery, and sick laps! Tough to beat, even if you're just watching the video.
    Guy in the blue boat saving it with a high brace... he's got the feel of it.
    And Bren with that "I love this and I love life" grin on his face... This video was a marvel to watch. Every second of it was fun, and it was over too soon.
    Which is the better slide, Graceland, or the one on Tenaya Creek?

    Always a great video. Still amazed at what you all can do. I look at that river and say no way can someone go down that but you constantly prove me wrong. Thanks for sharing.

    I thought you were going to start incorporating music in your videos at the very beginning. Thank you God. You chose not to. I hate watching expert kayakers run some crazy white water with music. These videos are amazing.

    I noticed you had some additional padding added for when you shoulder your boat. Any chance you could post a video or a photo of that? If you do it on IG as a photo or a short here that would be great. Just got a Gnar and notice when I shoulder it the boat wants to sit on my shoulder between the hip pad and the thigh hook. I'd love to see how you padded it out and taped it up so clean.

    What is a “reconnect” in describing a rapid?

    • @danejacksonkayak
      @danejacksonkayak  8 місяців тому +3

      It’s where on a drop or a slide, you will disconnect from the water at some point, then land back on either the slide or a shelf or however the rapid is

      @danejacksonkayak  8 місяців тому +3

      I didn’t have it at this point haha, as always my posting my videos is way off from proper timeline haha.
      But the Gnarvana is still the boat for the stouts, the flow is great for the joy laps.

      Considering Dane and his sister Emily are the principal owners of Jackson Kayak/Adventures, I'm sure they're doing just fine. Eric Jackson built the company from nothing into the largest brand in kayaking history.
