I've seen some videos of this in the past but this is the first one that really shows the speed.
And also at near the end the camera is filling from the bottom of the spillway and it gives you and idea of the incline.

Such over-hyped Hollywood porn. And he doesn't do a great job of it (not that I would).
We would leave home in the morning and could play all day, as long as we were back before it got dark. No one was able to reach us and no one minded!

I was thinking that too, also it doesn't strike me as that difficult, I have seen him do much harder rapids. But I like it for its production values and the slow motion lets you see the technique he's using, riding up on reactionaries, charging cross the grain..... low brace turns, bow rudders etc. ;)

The production values are great, definitely. Good movie to show to a non-kayaker.

[Vids] WW instructional vids

Post by Seanie » Fri Jun 06, 2008 5:37 pm

http://www.whitewaterinstruction.com is a website by Shane Benedict that has articles on various aspects of whitewater kayaking.

And the cool thing is that they also put a video with each article.

My favourite video so far is on the theme of accuracy, picking your line and sticking to it.
http://www.downstreammedia.net/liquidlogic/accuracy.mov (4.6MB)

Enjoy.
