It’s been a few years since I’ve been to Nationals, but the only class exclusions were age, gender and boat type. The Citizen class is to encourage new racers, but you aren’t forced to enter it. I don’t read anything in the rules that state otherwise. I suggest asking to use an Ocoee from Al, Jeff, ...

You are likely thinking of the Gunnison Gorge: http://eddyflower.com/RunDetailstabs.aspx?RunId=155 It's a transition canyon with dam controlled flow which I usually paddle in the spring or fall. It's also a wilderness which isn't common for CO. A lot of rafters float it for the fishing, but the high...

We are looking at moving the race to Salida, an...

Whittern won OC1 with a 7 sec lead and one touch. Click and Oxenford had the best OC2 time. They were 48 sec slow...

There are a few GC rapids without clean lines especially for oarboats. Hance, Horn, and Lava come to mind. House Rock is the first test for a boatman in a big boat and you usually get to it on day two. It’s a tight line to miss the big hole. I’ve seen that hole flip an 18’ raft with no problem. You’...
