@@SouthernYak Big fun, was going for the Room, flipped above it, thought I was past VW, rolled up in the Room, pure luck the rear of the boat did a stern squirt. Road the squirt all the past VW. I wish I could say it was skill, but it was 90 percent luck. And I have it on video :D
You can definitely go more river right. Most people who are left do it for the challenge and fun and it doesn’t always work out well. 🤣 there is a pour over you want to avoid about 1/2 down the approach on river right but once you clear it you can cut over right and avoid the chaos of pillow rock.
That paddleboarder! 👌 👏
agreed! It was epic watching him do that!!
Bro! Incredible!
I was in the boat for that first one!!!!! Epic day so happy I found this video.

Absolute insanity!
good times were had by all! :D
Nice one! Wish I was there.
I could stay all day right here! 🤣
Hahaha. Indeed!!
I’ve never been there, so I have no clue, but what is to stop people from being more River right? Are there rocks blocking the entrance?

That brings back memories. I got my butt kicked on that rapid many times in the 90s. At least it is a pretty safe spot to crash and burn.
No brain no pain.
hahaha!!!
This is the best! 🤣🤣🤣
good times for sure!!! Congrats on getting on UG!!!
@@SouthernYak thanks dude! Awesome seeing you guys out there!
Did anyone die?
Yes. About 253 kayakers died that day.
I don’t get why they all crash is it that hard seems kinda like a really 🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈 sport!
