Cheif Wiggens a fifteen year old on his first trip on the ledges WON. I like we are keeping up the tradition of young bad arses

That's awesome!!

Was "it's my first time running this" one of the t-shirt excuses? Congrats!

I took Bob over to ALF. This was his first time to run the Tellico. He only saw the Ledges on the way up. Driving over I asked him if he was running Bayless Boof of the Upper Green over and over would he feel comfortable- he said yes. I said go for it- the race that is. He was in an Ion, strokin and boofin hard.
Go Bob!

Dang it! Now I can't use the "short boats are slower" line when I'm lagging behind in my Ion.

Congrats Bob! I'm going to use your accomplishment as motivation. Is your Ion red? Must be- I don't know if you would've been fast enough in blue or black.

15 years old? That's so rad! Congrats little buddy, keep the C!

thank you, thank you all. yes, the ion is red. it was a lot of fun- thanks for putting it on Richard. By the way, i really do like the color of that maxim.

CONGRATS BOB!!! Just saw the video of the race finish. Glad you won!!

So Bob, here's what everyone wants to know: What was your race strategy?

ummmm.........., good question. i didn't really have one. i wasn't even really in it to win until i dropped the first ledge and started feeling better. after that, just paddle like h***, stay dry so i didn't have to dump anymore, and remember what i'd seen on my way up (walking [read scouting]) to the put in. and did i mention paddle hard?

I also thought part of your strategy was matching yor skill with that superfast short boat I sold you!! Ha!!

Congrats Again!!!!
