Maggot afraid to kayak now

[P_McPoser]

I want one of those fucked up thingamajigger rafts. They look like a blast, and not scary.

Creature Crafts = teh ultimate gapermobile.

Worse than snowlerblades and fruitboots. Don't be a fucking kook.

[P_McPoser]

Thanks. I cared about looking cool!

All this trash talking, I really hope you fucking knobs hang out on mountainbuzz some.

Sorry I couldn't resist!

I really need to get over my fear of moving water. Last time I went on any sort of moving water I had and incident that ended up with blood gushing from my head and another involving getting pinned under a log in a pretty tame rapid.

To be fair I was using one of these.

^^^When I eat shit on the bike, I don't have to worry about drowning either.

True, but drowning in a class III rapid is very rare (unless you don't know how to swim) and usually happens to fat midwesterner's in Brown's Canyon.

Swimming continuos class IV/V....well that can be pretty fucking scary and life threatening.

I recommend that Summit quits being such a pussy.

But you know what, B? Most people who start kayaking quit before they ever get any good. It's better to just hook up with a group of boaters than to try and convince a bunch of skiers/bikers to start being badasses at yet another sport.

Yeah.... Most people never get a chance to walk their way down BT and other class V runs and then post TRs.

Kayaking is scary and giving people shit doesn't help. Keep after it Summit!

[RootSkier]

Oh damn, now that is some good trash talking!!!!!

That's what I'm all about.

[P_McPoser]

hehe this thread is entertaining. It's honestly encouraging as a kayaker to see that I'm not the only one who puckers whilst kayaking.

Everyone I know is scared shitless on a regular basis. I am terrified of our upcoming Payette trip, I am going to have to take a shit just thinking about it...we even have a word for it: nurpu (nervous poop).

I remember having to take a leak before every rapid the first time I got on a legitimate creek on Canyon Creek near Vancouver, WA. It became routine: Pull over in the eddy, scout the rapid, take a piss, get in your boat and run the rapid. I didn't even know that I COULD piss that much. Very scary. Very fun.

You kids just need to up your game so you can keep up with what ktw's 53 year old mom was doing this summer

[Blurred]

Or the Numbers. Pretty much III+ whitewater at this level with #'s 4 & 5 an easy IV-. Just more action and not as long as Browns.

Sunday would probably work.

I'll call you this weekend. Could you pm me your #? My phone shit the bed.

Summit, keep boating at your level. Remember, this shit is supposed to be fun. Heres a suggestion for Adimmen, Summit, PMcpose, take a day trip to Pueblo play park. Jump in everything and don't worry about getting worked or swimming. You can learn a shit ton in that park and never lose a boat or get hurt. All of it will translate to rivers and you will get comfortable quick. I know its a long drive for you guys but its worth it.

Excellent idea. I'll drive. We can all fit in my truck. Let's go this weekend, like tomorrow on Saturday.
Summit, McP, Andy? What do you guys say?

[soylent green]

I would meet you guys, but I'll be at FolksFest sitting in the mud all weekend. BTW, park on the east end. There have been breakins reported on the west end. #6 is sooo much fun right now.

this thread is funny.

Don´t think much to learn just good to kajak much in still water to get muscle.A drain carries you along you only believe you could influence a boats course.

You've obviously never been on the Youghiogheny.

Make your own decisions, Summit. Have fun.

Nope, is that the section that they guide customers down in duckies?

Actually it's cloudpeak. Those pics were taken on the Ottawa (while I was sitting home on my butt).
