Kayak Polo in Cape Town
26 April 2013, 08:42 1
I was lucky to go to home to Cape Town, South Africa over the festive season for a long overdue visit. Cape Town is blessed with beautiful beaches and mountains. In the winter some of the best creeking in the country can be found. There is a small crew of core paddlers who get out during the cold...
The Hidden Treasure: Racing down Wills Creek!
26 March 2013, 18:43 2
"A box without hinges, key, or lid, yet golden treasure inside is hid." - J.R.R. Tolkien WIlls Creek is a rarely paddled gem of a Class 3-4 run with one Class 5 rapid, tucked in the mountains of Pennsylvania, just north of Cumberland, Maryland. It is comparable to many of the other...
Unthawing the boating stoke
22 March 2013, 21:49 7
It’s that time of the year again! Looking out of the window I am still surrounded by snow, however that just seems to be part of the deal when you move to mountain town like Rossland, BC. And I won’t argue, the winter was a sick one! While over the last years I have always been a very one track...
An early season classic. Middle Box thru Baker's of the Animas
19 March 2013, 01:15 27
I was going through some footage from last season and came across this vid. As my backyard run, the Middle Box thru Baker's section of the Animas is awesome. Continuous rapids with a little break in the middle, committing walled-in granite gorge, a couple of portages (depending on level), and a lot...

I was honored to be chosen this winter to compete in the second Whitewater Grand Prix event in Chile. I was invited based on this entry video, thanks Leif for the killer edit. After obtaining the necessary permissions to skip out on the last three weeks of classes from my professors and paying...
Kootenays 2012; Video Part 1: Creek
18 January 2013, 04:44
Happy new year everybody. I recently finished the first half of my 2012 recap edit. Throughout the last years all my videos kinda turned into this lookatmepromokindathing. I can’t say that I minded either. Stroking the geo and such… Now this year though has been a lot more creeking then the previous...
DO IT NOW!!!
12 January 2013, 21:14 44
Last year, Fluid put out a new whitewater sit on top called the Do It Now. The idea was to take the phenomenal creek boat hull of the Bazooka and convert it into a craft that is extremely stable and forgiving but also high performance. What they created was the greatest sit on top of all time! The...
Hurricane Sandy Brings Rarely Run Streams To Reality!
06 January 2013, 20:56 9
We had a stroke of luck during the end of the paddling season in the Mid-Atlantic to catch a hurricane that brought heavy rains, flooding, and canceled days of school. Since I am a school teacher, I took full advantage of this to go run some streams that rarely have enough flow to do. As it rained...
Fantasy Falls
02 January 2013, 19:10
On the way back from our spring Stikine trip, I got a call from the inestimable Rolf Kelly with the news that California was going off. After the worst Idaho ski season on record I had a bunch of PTO saved up, so four days after I got home from BC I was driving toward the North Fork of the...
