This one time we took our old school boats to Wilson Creek. Turns out, it was totally awesome.
Old school is definitely a must. Get out and grab a playboat from the late 90’s!

This review has been sitting on my hard drive for some time! So here it is my thoughts on the Liquid Logic Jefe.
The Jefe (or Boss) has been one of the best creek boats on the market for a while now but has been overshadowed in recent times by the crop of planning hull creek boats such as the Wavesport Recon, and Liquid Logic Stomper. Where the Jefe really differs from these designs is the fact that the Jefe has a displacement hull.Liquid Logic Jefe – ReviewThe Jefe (or Boss) has been one of the best creek boats on the market for a while now but has been overshadowed in recent times by the crop of planning hull creek boats such as the Wavesport Recon, and Liquid Logic Stomper.

Ragnarok is typically used in modern Norwegian to describe something that is absolutely crazy. This summer team substantial spent 3 weeks in the amazing country of Norway and well lets just say it was absolutely crazy! From the whitewater paradise of Voss to the Fjordlands of Valldal, and the flowing rivers of Sjoa, we were greeted with some of the best whitewater on planet earth, good friends and great times. Here is a short teaser of our episode set to drop in september! Enjoy.

What a summer we are having. Its August 8th and the river is cranking. Tuxedo hydro plant is running 2 Units at 100% capacity and the lake is 100.6. That means a 6″ slab of water is rolling over the dam.
After weeks of great freestyle paddling in Colorado and Idaho demshitz where all fired up to get back into our creek boats. Everyone was ready to charge! Our first stop was the Leavenworth area where we tackled Exit rapid at good flow. Pretty stout rapid, but all went well expect for Bren blowing his skirt and swimming for a quarter mile. Next on the hit list was Log Choke falls on the Top Tye.
I have a number of new bits of kit heading this way over the next few weeks for review.
The 1st to land will be the new K2 Union Suit and Royal Spraydeck from Immersion Research.
More landing soon.
Another great video from my friend Sam Ellis. Charging hard in God’s Own County.
So the rains finally came!! After work Monday night got a run on Aysgill Force and a swollen Swale. Footage was too dark for rest of the Swale but I assure there weren’t any other place I would of rather been.
Enjoy
