There has been a few edits showing kayaks, SUPs and inflatables running the ditch but this time there is overtaking and a ditch battle for the win.

This summer the SEND crew met up with some of the best paddlers from the west coast and spent a few weeks getting on the ultra classics of California.
Until they go back, California is always on their mind.
Bren Orton has broken his face! This is how it happened.
Check it out. Scary scenes.
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!
Dane is a genius on the water but off the water he can have his moments where I am just shaking my head. So stoked that we are the luckiest gits in the world and that this worked out!
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.
Myself (not me but Bren Orton) and Adrian are currently living in an African village… next to one of the best big waves in the world.
There are lots of great parts to living in the village from the friendly neighbours, stoked kids, pets and cost of living but the best part is how close we are to the legendary Nile Special wave.
Check out the video to see more.
It’s always good to hear that others like the same things as you do. We love the Ace of Spades here at Unsponsored HQ and we still have one of the very first as our main kayak.
Adrian Mattern speaks about his first year with the Ace of Spades, with footage from Norway filmed by Olaf Obsommer.
