my wife found me in the bed with my old Riot 007 ....what a threesome that became.... Stern Grabs, Splats, and big Enders........ ahhh the married life ain't so bad....as long as you have a class V ole lady...rafted the UG at 6 months pregnant with River, rode her GSXR 750 until he was 8 months in t...

Thanks Alex, It may not be the gnar.....but it sure was fun....
I can't wait to Huck it UP!!! Wheel'n & Thrill'n off the Falls.. ..
I owe you a cervesa for your hard work...
And yes, that is B.O.B. @ 20 seconds. It was coming up as we were on it...roughly alittle over 2 feet.

I have rolled my super fly in a pool with hand paddles, a few times. A strong hip snap and keeping your head down is a must.

It was fun as usual, the Lost Tribe are becoming strong paddlers. I look forward to seeing these guys in a few years ripping the creeks and shredding the holes... It was also very cool to see esprit loan out some nice boats and instruction as well 8) I would love to spend some time in Mexico with th...

I like to peel in and out of eddies backwards in the supa Fly. I like to think that if I am ever being blown down stream after being rejected from a micro eddy, I will be more suited to catch the next eddy backwards and retain my balance. hopefully not rolling and being pushed off of a drop backward...

I agree with Oc1er...the scissor motion is very important...lead with your head as well. Look at the bow as you start, and then look for the stern as you rotate past vertical...very helpful...
enjoy....

A good time was had by all today. the Lost Tribe were a lot of fun to paddle with. I hope they had as much fun as I did. Open boating was definately represented today 25-30 oc1's and 1 c1 gyra max....

now that was a good time
so the S. Fly is a little wet....it sure is fun though!!! I was able to splat a rock in slow water and drive the boat past vertical and settle against the rock. I haven't done that in a long time. I miss playboating...but I love CREEK'N!!!!!

oh well then.... I will just have to wait until the hype subsides, hopefully the fly will carry me through the winter again. It has given me $2000 worth of fun for only $200...so what if it's alittle wet. Louie, did you pop the dent out of the bow yet? how hard did you hit to do that? just curious.....

how much?????

...the H2 is not a playboat, it's a creek boat or did I miss something here. I have outfitted mine with a perception saddle and it was great. I love the chines on most all pryanaha boats, carves great. Weldwood gel is the stuff....ruff up the plastic, apply a thin coat to the boat & to the foam....l...

I wish the camera captured his roll bellow VW rock....badass'edness....

Nice.....


Is his paddle face backwards? just curious...

At OO, you do not get paid until you get released to run trips. Some people never get released, so it's not a money maker for them. I have lost a few friends from OO due to issues on rivers other than the Ocoee. I think that it may be partially due to reading water and possible not being with others...

I would like to thank everyone on both days for showing me the lines and holding my beer while I got hammered. I really think that I had a good time....can't quite remember all of it now :oops: It was a pleasure to paddle with some of the best openboaters in the world, I was able to learn a few less...
