[@peterwhatley4413]

Great video great group loved it nice one Pete

[@RiverKingsKayak]

Thanks Peter!!!! Was such a fun day!

[@joshinfwtx4506]

So good! Thanks for sharing with us

[@RiverKingsKayak]

Thanks Josh!!

[@IraFowler3]

Looks like a blast. Of all the days to pick up a flat tire

[@RiverKingsKayak]

oh man! I hate that!

[@jasonwalker7166]

13:25 M-Wave triple kayak - so funny ! WTG

[@jasonwalker7166]

On a side note - I know to hit the left side of M Wave to bomb right through..... is there a line in BIG DROP to plow right through?

[@jasonwalker7166]

got it at 42:19

[@RiverKingsKayak]

Same...the shoulders of almost all rapids are that line...

[@RiverKingsKayak]

That was sooo much fun!

[@elijohnson7915]

Great video, love going to the white water center

[@RiverKingsKayak]

Thank you Eli!!

[@followingrj]

Dude, Pete, you freakin rock bro. Your energy and love for the sport is awesome, KZbin has a lot of kayak “sport builders”, but what you and guys like wade do with your channels is not just “sport building”, it’s also “community building” and theres a huge difference between the two, but you guys do both. What an awesome day, this is what camaraderie looks like.

[@RiverKingsKayak]

Thanks a ton RJ!! This channel has just been so much fun!! Watching folks get into it, and get better and then straight shred is so fulfilling!

[@oscoastierob]

Sorry I missed coming down for this, (this is Matt Wallin’s brother Rob) we just had too much going on but I plan on coming down next year if you guys do it again. Cool meeting you at NOC during WOR !

[@RiverKingsKayak]

For sure Rob!!! Lets do it next time!

[@Trilordy]

Sweet video dude I would love to come out next year and represent the KZbinr whitewater SUP'ers.

[@RiverKingsKayak]

Do that!! Thanks a ton!

[@hunterwhitekayak]

Loved every minute of this man!!! Sitting here at 40 min in and LOVED ADB's wall slide on the comp section!!! What a great day brother and its so cool to see how some of us would miss the move the first time and then you going over it with us again and nailing it the second time! Such a rush and appreciate everything you do man! So glad they opened back up for yall! And SHANNON MINK -- coming all the way from INDIANA!!!

[@RiverKingsKayak]

Yes sir!!!! Too much fun! You guys rocked it! I think we may need to do it again in the spring!

[@shannonmink7488]

It was well worth the drive!

[@sticksstones8498]

I'm excited. Can hardly wait. One day for sure

[@RiverKingsKayak]

Yes sir!

[@the_uncommon_kayaker2536]

What a great day with great people !!!!

[@RiverKingsKayak]

Indeed Courtney!!!!!

[@sticksstones8498]

You are #1 as an all round guy, great videos Pete the best vidographer I ever witnessed. Straight up

[@RiverKingsKayak]

Well, I try anyway! Thanks you sir for the support and the kind words!

[@jacksnellings1256]

whats up my friend

[@RiverKingsKayak]

Jack!

[@Chompchompyerded]

Looks like glorious fun!

[@RiverKingsKayak]

Indeed MammaDuck!!!

[@jonnynails]

Looked like a good time. At 17:33 is my nightmare!! Happens all the time if your bombing it. Have you been upside down under a raft yet Pete? LoL.

[@RiverKingsKayak]

Oh, I have definitely been under a raft! that is not the place to be! LOL

[@Trevor_Hall]

Can't wait!!!!!!

[@RiverKingsKayak]

U are a star!!

[@RebeccaBaltich]

My attention span is pretty short sometimes, but I watched all of this on the big screen! Looks like we threw in a towel a few minutes too soon with the lightning. Should have waited it out. Good to see you Pete (aka Trophy Husband). Branden

[@RiverKingsKayak]

Thanks a ton Branden! So good to see you out there! We need to hit a river soon...

[@troybennington3479]

Curious, what’s the cds there? Good times, love watching and seeing people falling from the sky😜

[@RiverKingsKayak]

200 cfs instructional channel 500 cfs wilderness channel 700 cfs competition channel Then there is big water nights on Thursday and friday...😍🤩

[@paula32855]

As always great Pete video! One more question, have you tested the Dagger Mamba kayak, or can you give your opinion on this? Best regards from Poland, Adriana👍

[@RiverKingsKayak]

Thanks Adriana! While I don't have a lot of seat time in a Mamba, I can tell you that it is a really solid boat with many years of production and many thousands of satisfied paddlers...It is a really forgiving and predictable kayak that will take care of you.

[@paula32855]

@@RiverKingsKayak Thanks Pete!The films you make motivate me to overcome my fear and to paddle better and better💪

[@g.garner]

Next season for sure!

[@RiverKingsKayak]

Yes sir Govan!

[@CareyCarolinaCamper]

My toes finally have skin on them again lol…can’t stop smiling though when in the back of my head I hear Pete yelling “feet up! Get your feet up!” Great time, amazing people and location, can’t wait to go back!

[@shannonmink7488]

Yes, your swim was definitely more gnarley than mine. It was great to meet you !! See ya next season!

[@RiverKingsKayak]

You did great and now have a great story to tell! We need to get together on something like the boiling hole and have some fun!

[@happy138love]

This is on my goal list! Saving up to get in the whitewatergame :) Love these videos

[@RiverKingsKayak]

Right on BeautCascade! You are gonna love it!

[@bobmcelroy7289]

Needed this today! What a wall-banging laugh-till-your-belly hurts video! One question, though....how on earth do you recognize all these people with all the gear on and everything??

[@RiverKingsKayak]

Right on Bob!! Actually, it can be harder most of the time to recognize folks out of their boat and gear! LOL. You just get used to seeing folks in their colors and boats

[@bobmcelroy7289]

I can understand that! After working hospital life for 35 years, seeing nurses in street clothes was mystifying! 😂

[@macfawlty]

Better hit the bell now

[@RiverKingsKayak]

LOL!

[@okiboards4446]

Do you know where I can find a Jackson Zen 3.0 for my son?

[@RiverKingsKayak]

Check Facebook Marketplace...as well as some gear swap groups on FB and sometimes craigslist...

[@wolfriveroutdoors]

Awesome video as always, Pete! For the younger rippers in the video, are they paddlin a Remix 59? Curious - I’m looking for a bigger boat for my almost 10 year old. They grow so fast! Also, who is that Wade guy in the video? Never heard of him. 🤣🤣🤣

[@RiverKingsKayak]

LOL! The Remix 47 is the boat you are after. Hands down the best kids ww boat. Thanks WRKC!

[@rachaelmonette3333]

Where is this at? I live in Winston Salem and am looking to go to some rivers that have more rapids than the ones I’ve been going to.

[@IE_Tiger]

Charlotte

[@RiverKingsKayak]

[@loicdallaire1714]

Looked like such a magical day man! Such a shame I didnt get to whitewater kayak this year, hopefully next year is the one. Keep on being amazing Pete much love from Canada

[@RiverKingsKayak]

Thanks Loïc! Get after it! You will love it.

[@dronk311]

This is going to be a rowdy one….🤙

[@SchaeferYaks]

Is it 9 yet? 👀😬 Literally can't wait for this! 🤙🏽

[@misery13666]

Still want to see Pete hit the comp channel in Nana

[@RiverKingsKayak]

Oh that would be so much fun!

[@kwright683]

Looks like it was an absolutely amazing day on the water with lots of good people. Hopefully I can make it down there next year if ya'll do it again. Great vid as always!

[@RiverKingsKayak]

Right on K! Thanks! Im feeling certain we will do it again!

[@canajian]

👋😎👍

[@macfawlty]

First time in WW boat, God help him.

[@RiverKingsKayak]

LOL!

[@macfawlty]

Pretty amazing he knows to keep that paddle in the water for stability. Only slight fladdling.

[@RiverKingsKayak]

He did sooo good!
