Hello guys.
We went for a whitewater trip with a couple of double bladers to germany, austria and switzerland. Footage is not tremenduous, but at least we have some.
We started on the river Amer in germany. A bit low on water, but great for warming up. On higher water levels it is supposed to be a class II, with passages class III.
Then we moved over to the Inn valley in Austria. We went for the Imster Slucht, Sanne(Sanna??), Rosanna, Scuol gorge in Switzerland, ... . Nice paddling and for me first time a natural class III. Volume class III and technical class III. I'm pleased to say I only swam 3 times on a week paddling. A not-seen rock in an eddy, once a bat route choice and boat full of water, unavoidable hole.... .
Kris went for a couple class IV rapdis. But I decided it was wise to stick to class III as it was my first time on this kind of natural water.

We also went for a canoe trip in sweden, on the river Eman. I also composed a clip of that trip. A bit flat though, and low on water. The guidebook says you have to walk around the rapids, but all of them are class II. Not too many rapid footage in this clip. Partially because of the low water, stranded a couple of times, and partially because I worked on some bloopers. It took me a while that my air-bagged viper behaves totally different then a loaded vertige.
Maybe you like it, maybe not:

Oh, and don't mind the little publication at the beginning and at the end, it's for Kris' canoe school in Belgium.
