This summer we spent 23 days in Colorado from mid May through early June. We arrived to a couple weeks of low flows, but the snow eventually started melting and we managed to get on 14 different rivers and creeks.

Every year kayakers and adventure seekers flock to the infamous Tallulah Gorge for class V paddling. Alex Weinert has put this great edit together from this year’s festival.
I first became inspired to enter the outdoor industry on a trip to Val Sesia with Gene17 when I was working for a bank, feeling pretty lost in life and confused by what my future held.
An (almost certainly) off the cuff comment from one of our coaches at the time saw me on an intensive outdoor instructor training course less than a year later, and I haven’t looked back since.
Each year Gene17 invite applications to come and join them on a week of intensive training aimed at those wishing to improve, or enter high end whitewater guiding. This year Me, Bastien and Matt were all lucky enough to be offered a place, along with another six paddlers from the UK and Europe.
A great edit from Mat Dumoulin showing his travels from France to Uganda.
Uganda With Mat Dumoulin enjoy.
Eliot, Hunt, and Kincaid on Little River Canyon around 1,500 cfs. LRC is one of the best runs around, starting with a a 30 foot double drop at the put in followed by the suicide section stacked with fun big rapids, then the upper two section ending in a short but stout hike up to the top of the canyon rim.
Colorado teens (ages 15-19) experience the sheer power and awe that the harmony of the river has to offer. People often believe that kayakers think that they have no limits; this is false. We have limits, they are just far beyond those of the average persons. Filmed entirely in Colorado over the summer of 2014.
Believe it or not, Storey Arms Graduates are not ALWAYS great at this paddling malarkey. Sometimes it all goes abit Pete Tong, resulting in scratched helmets and comedy gold. Here are some of the best bits we’ve caught on camera.
Awesome trip to the Stikine river in September 2014, with footage from Nick Bennet and Ash Bullivant.

There has been a serious amount of rain over the last few days here in the UK, with many rivers being listed as huge on one of the river level sites. Bastien’s edit shows us what the water levels have been like further up north from Unsponsored HQ.
On a wild snowy and windy winter day, we went paddling the Upper Spean river on 6 and plus pipes then a massive River Garry. I can’t thank enough my poggies. It was a good day. Continue reading
