That was a fun one to watch. Last time I was on Big Creek was about 25 years ago in a Pyranha Micro. We did that in the morning, then caught Ramsey Cascades in the afternoon. Fun, steep, day.

[@WadeHarrison]

Yeah, you can knock those both out in a day with the right water levels

[@ethanstrattan9304]

Man, I'd paddle with you anytime. So many over-the-shoulder checks on your partners coming through behind you. Great lines and a great video! That move you made right at 2:59 was gorgeous, I'd have tried for a lot more left-hand angle and then a hard turn to the right, but the way you did it popped you right out with the perfect angle for the next move.

[@WadeHarrison]

Yeah on these small creeks I’m very concerned pins and strainers I know about where all the spots are and it’s so easy to just zone out and paddle and someone pins or is under a tree and your way downstream and can see them not safe so I try to just do a quick glance back every rapid make sure all good before dropping into the next

[@davidmc37865]

One of the best Big Creek videos I've seen. Nice grab and go. Stout wading.

[@WadeHarrison]

Hey thanks buddy this is like good first time level there I personally like it high but I would never take a crew first time down that high could be very dangerous I paddled it low at 2.8-4.3 that’s money spot is 3.5 this was 3.1

[@gagekayaks]

Micro creek?! That’s a Big creek!

[@WadeHarrison]

Big micro

[@FeWolf]

Rocippopotamus amphibius in some interesting place, tech run! That bottom half is awesome scenery !

[@WadeHarrison]

Yeah it’s a classic

[@ricky9067]

Beautiful run, reminds me of Pauley and Lavazola creeks near Nevada City, California.

[@WadeHarrison]

Well that sounds like a place I like

[@jasoncowan98]

I've paddled Pauley and Lavazola back in the day! Beautful creeks.

[@RebeccaBaltich]

Oh dang, unintended Indra over Steeze moment . . . just happened that way. Obsoleting boats.

[@WadeHarrison]

Yup exactly

[@csgoodstuff]

That's a really cool steep drop after drop creek you all are running. What creek and where is that? Sweet lines, well done.

[@WadeHarrison]

Big CReek North Carolina USA

[@thomasmattingly3731]

Damn i believe that's the spot Brian Miller had a bad pin in a C1.

[@WadeHarrison]

Dude I said that same thing to these 2 on the walk up I was like with this creek it can go bad very fast and my buddy Brian is a phenomenal boater and I was like he got locked upside down under a tree out here and was very bad so let’s keep eye on each other and stay slow and easy through these top rapids I was shocked how many new trees were out there but was all good

[@dangerjudy5334]

That's a good a test as any for a steep, rocky SE creek and we know people are going to run the Indra down everything. Would the Code have been better?

[@WadeHarrison]

The Code eats this stuff up. Where I feel the Indra fell short was the front bow would get knocked off line when hits rocks. Can make it work but the code was built for this🥳

[@IraFowler3]

Thoughts on it as a creeker? Looked like the rocker came in handy

[@WadeHarrison]

The rocker and wide bow definitely helped it

[@gordmccoll5009]

Number 1

[@WadeHarrison]

Yup

[@gemmawatson6100]

Very reminiscent of some of my local creeks, sweet looking run and the Indra seemed to get down there really nicely. What is that run called?

[@WadeHarrison]

Well those i like to see

[@WadeHarrison]

It’s big creek in North Carolina USA

[@gemmawatson6100]

@@WadeHarrison Ahhhhhh so thats Big Creek! I know the name, didn't get it when I was over there back in 2010, but it looks like I missed out on a treat!

[@waveydavey]

So for this type of run in particular would you say Code > Scorch > Indra? I’ll hang up and listen.

[@WadeHarrison]

Code Scorch Indra in that order

[@powskier]

Are you also a kayak guide? Can paddlers from out west schedule a trip with you?

[@WadeHarrison]

I have done some guide trip yes but not alot

[@powskier]

@@WadeHarrison I just thought maybe you did because these people seem like clients in the video.

[@powskier]

Did you have to tape an index on your paddle? For $500, it didn't even come with one? Can you go over why you prefer straight shaft over bent shaft? I know paddle tricks are much easier, but I'm talking about in river running.

[@WadeHarrison]

This comes with a grip on it

[@thevillageiddiot1913]

How does it do on a river like this compared to a code?

[@WadeHarrison]

Code would be a better choice there

[@johneskew5374]

Impressive Rescue

[@WadeHarrison]

Yeah was just right there

[@brandonb9830]

What creek?

[@WadeHarrison]

This is big creek midnight hole to Pig

[@nathanking1110]

Did y’all hike your boats in? 🕛 🌖 🕳️

[@WadeHarrison]

Yes it’s a hike up and paddle down

[@zacsav4ge100]

That noise at 0:43 lmao wtf

[@WadeHarrison]

My big mouth got full of water in the middle of a woo! 😂

[@zacsav4ge100]

@@WadeHarrison that should be your youtube signature 😂

[@waveydavey]

LMFAO 🤣
