Rush Sturges Promo

[@mb69011]

that was.. one of the best videos I have ever seen on KZbin

[@JohnCarruthers]

Well done my man! A life of kayaking and kayaking is life, all rolled into a video . Best kayaking video I've seen.

[@geniocristo5297]

Stop talking john

[@Lnahbruh]

@@geniocristo5297nah, you.

[@JasonGenovaArchive]

The one person who disliked this truly belongs on the Internet. They will never aspire to have the balls or talent that this man has. Loved the video from a beginner.

[@TheNEMKE]

Blackmill and kayaking-life doesn't get any better than this :-) Amazing skills, superb video edit!

[@ardeneques]

This is one of the best videos I've ever seen. First saw it years ago and it still gives me a 'rush' watching it =) Got me into kayaking and making videos thanks man.

[@bp968]

Still one of my favorite videos! And it introduced me to blackmill who I absolutely love now!

[@ianngqoyiyana8531]

Love everything about this video. *Truly inspired*.

[@QuebecConnection]

Yesssss. Perfect intro, Winter/summer transitions are epic. Precise slow motions. Good music. Quality

[@claudious07]

I'm fifty one kayaker and never be over yours sixteen!!! Thanks mate

[@MaineRiverLife]

Rush... you guys are incredible. All the Tribe guys and friends slay, but the camera work and editing is taking things to an even greater level, keep it up guys. This one really gets the inner excitement going, LET IT RAIN!

[@ZachMacKayak]

this is such an amazing and inspiring film Rush. Thank you.

[@tristanhawk4035]

I've been wanting to kayak my whole life your encouraging me to kayak. THANKS FOR THAT

[@MegaPaddles]

Just get out there, find yourself a club and have a go dude

[@steffanmh]

You can officially say that you have been in a Perception Dancer though, at your tender age, you won't have had the misfortune to have actually had to paddle one for any length of time! Great music, great vid, keep it up Rush - and I look forward to the next movie. Off to paddle Lee Valley tomorrow...

[@thecreatorsoftomorrow6247]

I watched this video a couple years back it inspired me to buy a kayak this year and learn the ropes

[@TheAdrenalineRush]

Heck yah! See yah on the river :)

[@TheAdrenalineRush]

The first song is "Spirit Of Life" by Blackmill... Second song is by Emancipator called "First Snow." It's an excerpt from the end of the song...

[@Moeterboater]

This is one of the best short kayaking vids I've ever laid eyes on!! Inspiring, sick footage! Keep'r lit Rush!!

[@killtherude]

One of the most phenomenal videos I've ever seen, and that tune, holy shit this was well put together. I actually met him, had no idea who I was speaking too, except that he was a kayaker. Wish I would have known what a legend of the sport he is. I could have asked if his bowling balls are really made of titanium, and how he stays afloat!

[@TheSuperSoikkeli]

Blackmill fits so perfectly on this video!

[@ComaPictures]

U are the best in kayaking and videomaking! Best wishes from Ukraine!!!

[@ramjet6677]

Amazing !!! Im just getting into Kayaking and your story and parents legacy is Inspirational. Great Respect to Rush continuing what his parents started. Great Story

[@itscomingyourway]

This guy is on another level. I go boating occasionally but to do what he does takes crazy amounts of skill

[@jameymoore1995]

You have the cleanest lines on waterfalls I've ever seen. So sick. I'm 16 and hope to be getting on my first class 5 this summer!

[@manolillo20]

[@duaneross9271]

That's some crazy whitewater, waterfalls,and whatever else you want to call that crazy stuff your into. Great video photography as well. STAY SAFE

[@jpmannen9456]

Best video on youtube!!!

[@jimoliver601]

Off the charts! I can barely manage my "thrill" factor, "watching" this! Balls!

[@CPSJSMSUUMUGA]

A while back, maybe ten or so years ago, an expert kayaker who had grown up with the sport, was one of the safety boats on a commercial raft trip down Section IV of the Chatooga, at extremely low water - about 1.1 at the US 76 bridge. He didn't have much to do; the Vs become IIs & IIIs. He was playing in an innocuous spot, flipped & wrapped around a rock. His hand was visible above the water but it took over an hour to free the kayak and recover his body. That's when Rush is at risk.

[@lenny_Videos]

Great song and editing!!

[@EPICichiban]

Best Video Ride Ever!! miss Ole" "Oak Bottom"...

[@roriepotter7681]

Great video. Kayaking looks cool. I'd never try the line from 3:37 - 3:47 no matter how good I was at kayaking tho. I mean he hit it just right and he still landed on a rock.

[@hobytecz]

[@1booyaka1]

Ro- sham - bo to see who goes first?! it's amazing you guys don't sink from the weight of your balls.

[@franny74656]

the steep creek stuff is amazing. One fuck up and its over .hes the man all right

[@zuhuao]

Would they not break their neck or ribs from the impact after ride from a waterfall?

[@SteepVisions]

Typical injuries include the back, not ribs It can happen on a bad landing under strong and sudden g forces.

[@dawsonreynier2028]

Leon Zhang Typically those kind of injuries occur from landing flat off of big drops. The move is called a "boof," which is lifting your knees at the same time as taking a stroke, which lifts the front of your boat and making you land flat. Helpful for small drops under 40 feet. Anything over that has serious risk. Hope that helps!

[@michoe87]

what kajak do you drive in the video ?

[@craigdahl1188]

cool rock slide.massive blunt at 2:30

[@HeadFirstLax11]

Holy freakin crap!!!!!

[@Jasperbanaan]

@boatervca Thanks man

[@wfsier]

[@FlareFPS]

[@pagansnorider]

Damn! awesome vid, i do hope the Tribe crew start using different types of music in their movies though, the slow techno stuff is getting a little stale. still a sick vid, keep it up guys!

[@rogercastrillo8279]

❤️

[@Jasperbanaan]

What's the name of the song please? Nice edit btw!

[@flipwin1210]

Maan this guy must have incredible core muscle strenght!!

[@RTpatrick09]

Question for movie people : How were the clips of the river made, where the water level drops in what seems like "time lapse" style. the banks of the river stay Exactly the same in both the High and Low water level in the clips. i wonder if the low level is the original clip, and the high water is masked from another clip and placed over? it doesnt quite look like time lapse to me.
