It was an amazing trip! Thank you for leading us and watching out for us all

Thank you for the clarity. I basically was guessing there. I had the names just not their exact location and was a bit confused by the two names so now I know. Thanks for the info

@@robinclifton1719 U r welcome :-). I´m sure you enjoyed Futaleufu river and what you did is just a part of it, you have to come back to enjoy the rest or this powerfull river :-)

That looked like some big water. Swim looked short. Why were you paired up for a bit? Did you lose something on the other flip?

@@seanvarvel I didn’t but when I was under Ean through his paddle to give me a hand of god and then was without his paddle so we just hugged for a bit.🤣

Es war ein fantastischer Ort und wine tolle Reise. Danke für die en Kommentar.

That was awesome. Subscribed!!

It was spring so the air temp was warm, maybe 80’s and water temp was probably in the mid 50’s. Not at all bad for a drysuit. I had just chased down a runaway raft and was exhausted, I was planning on eddieing out there to rest when I found the seam. The roll was shit, all muscle no technique and panicked. Some how I thought I could swim before I entered the rapid but when I came out of my boat I was on top of a rock and the boat didn’t come off me right away so by the time I was out and orientated I was entering the rapid and was screwed. Good learning lesson though and I made it through without even a bruise. Just the ego and a long difficult scramble back to the bridge. And my boat ran the rest of the river without me🤦🏻‍♂️

@@robinclifton1719 Watching the video you got away cheap it was far nastier than I ever had (of course paddling in Soca Slovenia III-IV max)

You’re welcome to come and give it a try. I usually swim with my paddle when I can see an exit. This particular case the safest place was actually in the deep water in the middle and not near the rocks next to shore on both sides. I would have swam with my paddle at the end but it was ripped out of my hand on the last drop and rather than breaking it I let it go. It’s always easier to see and say what to do when you aren’t in the water and the GoPro always makes everything look much more chill than it really is. But I’d be happy to film you showing me how it’s done

Nice one!!! @@robinclifton1719

My first class V solo body kayak decent

It’s the South Fork of the American River above Chili Bar. Called Slab Creek, in California.

It’s my Red Cross, usually it’s for Disaster Relief but it decided to take this one off after saving others in the previous rapid. Evidently the teamsters limited it to One disaster per day.
