Playing in Slalom Boats in Charlotte

Post by knu2xs »

Today Tad Dennis and I headed to the whitewater center to just have fun in pointy fast boats. I brought along the GoPro and caught a little footie.

Here is the quick and dirty edit: http://vimeo.com/64034377" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

It requires a password: slalom.

Password works for me. Make sure your capslock is off, or just cut and paste from the first post.

Thanks for the suggestions, Bob. I had tried all that yesterday; hence, the angry face. Turned out I blocked Vimeo cookies so I allowed them and was able to watch. Now I wanna go play with my slalom boat. :D

I lack both the skills and the stones to play at Charlotte, that and I still can't get used to artificial courses and single pole gates...Oh and I have Tad's old Loco, seems the darn boat didn't learn anything from him because when I paddle it - it goes slow...

Excellent video.
