Yeah, but all that work and effort... I can understand his frustration at himself. Was waiting for him to start punching himself in the face.

Fun looking boat though

what a dork. i thought he was gonna cry at the end....the last time i was that pissed was when my mommy wouldnt get me a super nintendo.

he at least could have done somethin way more fullgnarlz like smashin his paddle over his face... if ur gonna do somethin...might as well go big. else you just look like a pansy.

You get disqualified for capsizing? They should award extra points!

Thats more like a backdeck roll, he is still coming up on his onside. i wanna see some true offside rolling, i was recently thinking about this because i was thinking about rolling up on the offside in a hole, you cant do a backdeckish type of roll cause youll just get shaded by the green. thoughts? videos

"You get disqualified for capsizing? They should award extra points!"

----you don't get extra points for flipping?!?! all my training....worthless.

from now on...everytime i flip...im FLIPPIN OUT! This dude is leadin the charge. HE IS THE FUTURE OF CBOATING. tip of the spear! converting those "who may just think canoeing is badass to thinking we're all wussys"...1 person at a time.

Dude's kicking butt.

Also in the "we design'em" serie somewhere you see a guy rolling multiple times on his offside in a big feature during a competition... but it doesn't seems to help much!

Hope you can do better!

Good lord, this is going to be worse than the time I took Christian Bale out for a paddle and somebody eddied in front of him...

Not getting a nintendo and not getting to compete in the olympics doesn't quite compare though does it... one is petulant and the other is a potentially devastating blow to your career.

As for going gnarlz, that video misses out his massive MAN ROAR at the bottom of the course, apparently several competitors were taken unawares and scared witless by him bellowing in spanish about his failure.

No, he missed a gate whilst upside down, and the 50 points put him out of the running.

philcanoe wrote:Hope it was a trials, and got a rerun?

Qualfiers, it's one of several chances to race for a place in the event... I don't think he got a re-run, but he could still qualify if his country's team has done well enough overall or he medals at the worlds.
