Dane, I'm a bit younger than your dad and cut my teeth on several of his videos. Worked at Riversports Outfitters with Ed in Knoxville for several years and learned to paddle on all those southeastern rivers. Man do I miss the Tallulah. There was a picture in Paddling magazine taken by Julie Keller of someone running Oceana that made me want to learn to paddle, and a year or so later I was running it. It's an absolute playground, as beautiful as they come. Thanks for the video!
Oceana is one of the easier rapids. The very first one Last Step calls alot of bluffs right off the bat. Those ones he is motoring down at the end have some tricky holes also.

"That was fun" -5 yo Dane after running class IV
Tallulah is fire
So fun to go back in time. Proud papa in the background.
Would love to go and jump in one of my kayaks with you ! Woah sick for real !
As a 12 yr old paddler, I aspire to run this someday. Idk how u did it AT 10!!
Tallulah is where I tore my shoulder on down river past oceanic fall
I wanna do oceana!! But I am just a crappy class 3 50 year old so called paddler.
So… Will you take me down Oceana in a tandem, please. 🤘🏼😁
Honestly, everybody can run it if u know how to roll 🫳
