A few days before MRF 2018 started we went upstream of the race course in order to explore and first descent an epic stretch of whitewater! Exploring new rivers in Kerala/ India.

Epic first day in India! We paddled the Iri Janipura river which was massive and we think it is the highest descent so far. Levels where rising on us throughout our session which made it pretty intimidating and we where all pretty stoked to be off the river at the bottom. Got into a good old cluster f**k and couldn’t find our driver, waited in the rain for a few hours before being rescued… So far India has been awesome!
The rain has hit many parts of the UK and the rivers in some areas have been huge, just not anywhere near Unsponsored HQ. This reminded me of one of my last flood level trips early last year. On the 25th February 2017 Team Unsponsored ran the Mint in Cumbria (UK). The end of that week had seen storm Dorris hit the UK with high winds and significant amounts of rain for majority of the North. This resulted in high water levels for the few hours we were on the river.
The boys hit Dinkey Creek.
We had an epic struggle to get to the river but eventually, thanks to the forest service and their chainsaw we made it and had a sick time kayaking down one of the best rivers in California if not the world!
Bren and Adrain are off on their travels again.
Myself and the boys are packed up and drove 50 hours cross country from Ottawa to California! It was a brutally long drive but we are stoked to show you what we’ve already been upto in California.
A Quick trip to Sap Falls.
Sorry for the lack of story on this one, we where busy having an awesome time with the Quebec connection crew and forgot to get the cameras out off the water.
It is still pretty cold out there. The guys have made it to the Ottawa.
We made it to the Ottawa but levels are still low as the melt hasn’t started yet- but we can literally smell spring right now!
Soon the Ottawa will change entirely and we will be surfing big waves, but for now it’s joy laps on class III which is not the end of the world either.
It’s been more than 20 years since kayakers first attempted this ‘unrunnable gorge’. In the summer of 2017, after two years of scouting and planning, four women would try what all others had failed: a full descent of British Columbia’s Klinaklini River.
This three-part series follows Maranda Stopol, Darby McAdams, Jo Kemper and Jordan Slaughter as they navigate the Klinaklini Gorge.
Kayaking down Sahalie falls – Dane Jackson and Bren Orton hit the 80ft fall. That is a big fall.
Check out this awesome edit from GoPro – Kayaking Iceland with The Serrasolses Brothers in 4K. Even if you can’t watch it in 4K it is still awesome!
The Ladakh River Festival takes place on the Indus River (India) on August 19 to 20th 2017. This is the worlds highest kayaking competition.
Here in Ladakh we have amazing, world class whitewater kayaking – big rivers, huge rapids, cold water and all in an environment like nowhere else in the world.
Bren Orton catches some great lines while kayaking the lower Rauma.
Epic day kayaking on the Lower Rauma at high flows, this river is so incredibly sick! Check it out!
I can’t show you guys all of the shots that we took that day because we’re saving them for a longer edit that is coming out in about 3 weeks! Keep your eyes peeled because it is going to be sick!
