    "you can run it completely wrong and you'll be fine..." Pete of the River Kings. LOL! ;-)

    Pete, your ability to recognize the outcome is incredible. Absolutely, an asset to those who paddles with you. Enjoyed it! AVA Brian

    I love your Learn To videos. Your older ones really helped me a lot when I was learning to kayak on moving water. The way you break down boat angle, the reflex waves that alter your course, everything was very helpful. There aren't a lot of kayaking courses close by in Saskatchewan so having your expertise available in video actually played a big role in my kayaking development. I always enjoy watching you introduce people to moving water kayaking.
    If you ever make it to northern Saskatchewan, give me a shout!!

    Excellent video as always Pete. Sorry I missed the premier, I fell asleep early lol. I appreciate you working with me and giving me a bunch of helpful tips. I had a blast and can't wait to get out again!

      Loved watching you enthusiastically tackle the river and Pete's instructions. Great job! I'm having my 2nd ever go on whitewater this coming Thursday, and will be remembering this video. Cheers, all the way from Derbyshire, UK

    Yesterday was my 2nd day on the river (Cartecay) and your videos were instrumental to having a successful day. Thank you for these fundamentals series, they make a difference! I hope to paddle with you someday!

      @@RiverKingsKayak Met Steve at the Optimist Pool Friday. I also met Marshall, who happened to know me through our daughters (the went to elementary school together), then later I recognized him in your video. Such a crazy small world. ;)

    Love the slow mo tags” lotta people stop paddling and then the river takes your boat”. Always know something fun is about to happen, LOL.
    Good stuff, I don’t think I pull into Eddie’s the way you do, though I cut in hard and lean, but not sure I take that off side sweep stroke. Have to pay attention!
    Great stuff

    Hey Pete, had an idea watching this video. Maybe you could talk about updated good starter gear needed to get going with basic whitewhater kayaking. Would partner well with these New Kayakers videos.

    What level rapids would this be?

    I had to pause the video at 3.35 because you did the now famous river king edit where something you say, is repeated in slow motion in a very ominous Pete voice, which usually means we are about to see what you have said, become reality. Let's see if Steve "stops paddling." 😂
