There's a lot of discussion in the whitewater community as to how meaningful these rapids are. Paddling off a 186 foot waterfall requires exactly the same skillset as paddling of a 50 foot waterfall. The consequences of error are much higher though. If you land wrong off a 50 foot waterfall, you're probably a paraplegic. Off a 186 foot waterfall, you're dead.<br /><br />I think running class IV looks like more fun than hucking off waterfalls anyway!Andrew Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09486716058377059434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-76056769579489721982009-07-26T23:38:42.115-05:002009-07-26T23:38:42.115-05:00I'm planning on adding a kayak to the complime...I'm planning on adding a kayak to the compliment of personal vehicles aboard the Privateer.<br /><br />I'm happy to report you will NEVER hear of a headline that says "Biker & pirate Strings went over X falls today in an attempt to prove the difference between brave and stupid"<br /><br />Ain't happening...Stringshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17399293868413376397noreply@blogger.com
