Not to diminish your accomplishment because its still a rough, even modestly dangerous rapid but it has been pretty well accepted that at low water, and anything under 1000 would definitely fit this category, Pine Creek is a IV+ at most. I make this comment not to be an armchair expert but to keep the beta realistic so any viewers can more accurately gauge this drop against their own skill levels. Really you need to start seeing 1,500+ cfs for this to resemble class V by modern standards. Even Colorado Rivers & Creeks ("the Bible" of Colorado whitewater) agrees with me and it first came out in the 90s

Funny you commented, I believe I watched the one you’re referring to on the front range FB group or one of those FB groups… I was videoing, this was not me, but I’m sure it will be soon enough! Always good to be humbled… “everyone is in between swims.” Maybe I’ll see you out there one day!

@DejanSmaic Ай бұрын

Yeah, not a lot of people admit swimming, but it happens a lot. I’m glad your bud is ok. My swim, well, it’s my favorite section of clear creek, also a meat grinder. It really hurt, and paid for lack of speed. I teach newer boaters speed is your friend, because it is. Anyways, good to just have lighthearted fun watch non-consequential swims.

I was the rope thrower. In a normal situation yea I was way early with the throw, but we were really concerned about that tree on the left, it had real snag potential to it. I wouldn't have even been remotely worried had the tree not been there.

I am guessing you took the hit on the later roll attempts, because I remember it being pretty deep immediately below the "second feature". Edit: I think you can see the rock at 0:26.

This is actually a really impressive fight for your first time swimming. You are doing way too much up top, blindly paddling hard and praying one of your strokes is timed to boof is not a strategy. Set your angle take maybe one stroke on the way in to keep your boat on line, plant the lefty, build pressure and lean forward as you pull your stroke. Never pull a boof stroke until you can see your landing. Sorry for the unsolicited advice.

@sighman_ Жыл бұрын

All good, Still working on perfecting the boof and remembering to actually do it. We scouted the drop and had a game plan and knew what to do. When it actually came game time though the adrenaline was flowing and I just didn’t execute correctly.

That's why I surf rather than run rivers. The most dangerous thing to hit in the ocean is my boat.

@domesticterrorist483 Жыл бұрын

You started sprinting right at the point where you actually needed to stop paddling , learn forward to set your boof stroke, then wait till the nose of your boot is just starting to drop then draw, and you have a perfect boof. You have to kill that bad habit of putting your paddel over your head crap (at 0:37). That does nothing, and invites a beating.

Everyone else successfully ran it & we had safety set. There was no reason not to. I was the weakest link on this trip, the guys gave me the option, you gotta step up at some point. Think I would’ve been fine without a Boof stroke in any other boat than the rockstar.
