"Highest Descent" Tellico River TN

[@SouthernYak]

Wade you've got the best SE Whitewater channel on youtube!

[@WadeHarrison]

Wow thanks buddy I appreciate you watching

[@RiverKingsKayak]

such a fun video!

[@WadeHarrison]

Yeah good levels 🤩

[@jeffgoatley]

Definitely chose the right boat! Awesome run!

[@WadeHarrison]

Oh for sure the JK Nirvana when it comes to big stout water this boat is amazing

[@sweetrvr]

I consider it high entertainment just listening to boaters from the SE talk. I could just listen to the transcript and be psyched. . " I'm gunna just raahhhhd it " Awesome. Well done boys.

[@WadeHarrison]

Hahha I do too

[@RebeccaBaltich]

Boys, that was awesome! Talk about quality continuous whitewater.

[@WadeHarrison]

It actually goes pretty good and I would definitely run baby down the middle if had a bigger group and at least one rope set up there’s a line at that level for sure

[@lashawncouey6498]

@@WadeHarrison it actually looks a lot better than I expected. Definitely still takes a ton of skill though. Sick lines!

[@WadeHarrison]

Yeah I tell people all the time that is washes out at over 6’ every time someone sees it high they just look at baby falls and say that death 😂 and this is not actually the highest I have done this run i’m thinking Me and my buddy Josh have the highest decent ever out there it was well up around 10’ but more water opens different lines I would be down to hit all the stout lines but wanting a bigger crew and maybe some safety set up and few spots but yeah if you stay on the lines we were on it’s actually pretty straight forward except for diaper wiper your going to have to hit that hole and pull a timed stroke

[@SchaeferYaks]

Damn good video!

[@WadeHarrison]

Yeah was a good day

[@capnhowdy3406]

Wow! That's huge! Biggest I've ever ran is just over 3'. Very nice!!!

[@WadeHarrison]

3’ is a super fun level

[@huntergipson3447]

Nice !! I’ve got a Zen 2 but been wanting to try a Nirvana all year - not much info out there on which is better for what though 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@WadeHarrison]

Jk Nirvana still the best big water boat I have ever paddle but every thing else it’s just overkill

[@huntergipson3447]

@@WadeHarrison hell yea I might have to grab one up one of these days Keep the videos coming man love watching them with my boys ! 🤙🏼

[@josephobenschain5999]

Sweet memories!!!!

[@WadeHarrison]

Yes I remember our lap that day

[@cointelpromusic6375]

14:34 look like u got some air there

[@WadeHarrison]

Yeah that wave

[@mikehunt4686]

Hey Wade, what do you think running a half slice through there would look like?

[@WadeHarrison]

The lines are actually pretty open I would not see issues with running it ripper rewind Antix 2 type boats if you know how to use that tail properly

[@mikehunt4686]

@@WadeHarrison It would definitely make it a little more sporty for sure.

[@UrsaMusic]

Dayum. Paul Parsons has a photo of someone in a ducky running Baby Falls at 10'. Not sure if they lived, i'm guessing no.

[@WadeHarrison]

😂 I highly doubt that happened

[@UrsaMusic]

@@WadeHarrison same here but he has the pics to prove it

[@acousticfixation]

14:34... my favorite!!!

[@WadeHarrison]

Yeah I love water boofs those are so west coast!!!

[@MichaelChanslor]

6:45 - Baby Falls

[@WadeHarrison]

This was last year

[@elijahevans124]

@@WadeHarrison Ha no way, we just got a whole bunch of rain last night. Tellico got on up to 5.8 feet. Prolly shoulda cross referenced the levels first.

[@WadeHarrison]

@@elijahevans124 yeah that’s why I put the picture of baby falls In The thumb nail you can clearly see it’s way bigger then today if you look at the picture posted on bookface

[@mikemiller5052]

I locked my keys in the car at the Tellico one time. AAA sent a guy all the way from Knoxville.

[@WadeHarrison]

Yeah makes sense Knox is the closest major town
