grand canyon Lava falls may 2023 (20kcfs)

[@scottsather602]

You know what's worse than one guide in a boat? 2 guides in a boat

[@davidsalo8397]

As a retired boatman, I completely agree! The last time I ran Lava, one of my passengers yelled "You got this David"! 👍

[@elendal]

Smooth ;-) Nice ride.

[@Michael65429]

Duct tape would solve that problem real quick... Otherwise they go in someone else's boat!

[@StormChaserMaci.]

I remember rafting this one! This one is the big one ya'll. 😊

[@alkberg2140]

Nice run!

[@craigsanders6925]

Kayaked it in 96 when they did the first high flow test, had upwards of 60K at one point. 35-40 I think when we got to Lava. Did the whole canyon in just over a week. :)

No disrespect to Mr. Hudson, but that is 186% more badass than taking a raft over llava.

[@raftskibum]

In the heart of one of the world's most notable big rapids, please give positivity to the captain. Not undermining negativity and "I don't care!!!". That would doom me to make all kinds of mistakes.

[@claylong7074]

Dude, in my opinion, you spiked that. You didn't chicken out to the left and you hit pretty much all the teeth without tumping.

[@VideoSpectator1223]

What do you enjoy the most since being retired

[@herbmanning8348]

Throw. Her. Overboard.

[@waterdragon4950]

Just follow the bubble trail.

[@hunterbancroft290]

I have never seen someone get that swallowed by the V wave and not flip

[@danhudson9244]

Wide stance cataract, weight forward with momentum makes all the difference. Had it been a raft it probably would have flipped

[@ananda_miaoyin]

Damn, I was hoping that your chick would fall off!

[@danhudson9244]

She did in Hermit!

[@ananda_miaoyin]

@@danhudson9244 Nice. Ever ride the South Fork of the American in Northern Cali? That's our local spot!

[@danhudson9244]

We need to!

[@concorde2003]

NIce...there's actually some sediment in the water. Yeah, the back seat driver needs to be quiet.

[@davidsalo8397]

Sorry. Maybe I'm sexist, but women seem worse at this. (My mother and two sisters are top notch worry worts. )

[@4rdale]

All those straps right there sure make me nervous. A real entrapment hazard.

[@concorde2003]

Good point.

[@joelbashore5658]

Got enough crap strapped to that raft?! Looks like the Beverly Hillbillies truck on water.

[@davidsalo8397]

"So I packed up my bags, and moved to Bev-er-ly. Hills that is. Movie stars and skyscrapers".

[@cnrjr]

I would never ride with that OMG - Passenger seat guide....

[@boathemian7694]

Open oar locks…

[@davidsalo8397]

They rock!

[@CanadianCookinginUSA_Eh]

Sweet thills!!!!

[@Tom-jy3jd]

I got this, mmmmmm

[@jasonlommen4769]

Annoying 😑

[@davidsalo8397]

Does she lack self reflection?
