Hi Mike and Sandra. Thank you for the opportunity to share with you some maneuvers and canoe strokes to assist in your quest to become better paddlers. I look forward to having you join me on a proper course where there is so much more to cover. Folks, spending a day with these guys is so inspiring! What you see on their videos is the real deal- they are joyful, fun loving, adventurous people who enjoy sharing their love of the great outdoors. What a great couple! Be safe out there everybody!
Thanks Rory! It was really great, we'll definitely be joining you on a course in the future when the opportunity comes up. I'd been obsessively researching ultralight solo canoes, but now looking at T-Formex canoes for rivers😄! Thanks again man!
Y’all learned some valuable skills !!! 👍 Enjoyed the magnificent scenery too !!! Seeing Sandra’s eyes get big when approaching the rapids was a big hit at our house 😳...!! Love you guys !!!!
I'm so glad to see the both of you wearing your pfd's. It's early in the year and that water is probably ice cold. The two of you did an incredible job. I can't wait to see you back at the shelter soon.
I was watching the instructor standing in his canoe and I thought “show off” and then you said “show off”. I laughed and laughed. Great job you guys. I did the Bowen Lakes in high school and but not much canoeing since then. I remember with two people that the hardest part was getting the language right so that we could communicate and follow the stern paddlers ideas and instructions.
Wow, nice job on the canoe. My dad and I were canoers way back. I canoed in Wyoming and Idaho. Nothing better than a quiet canoe journey with a few portages. You guys seem like naturals on the water!
Great new skills, and a great river to test them out on, I have been down that water may times... well done guys, you both make all your adventures fun..
Thanks for posting this. Your video is the rare one where the subtle music enhances the production. Many "outdoors" videos have canned music that is awful. I mute them. Not so, with yours! I appreciate your teamwork. Nice to see.
It's not wall-papering, but canoeing, that is the height of marital testing!!!! Great job, you guys! 👍😉🇨🇦🏆🛶💜 Rory is a good teacher and that is a beautiful 💜💜💜 little river!
Hey Mike and Sandra.... thanks for posting the great video. Just curious, I used to live in down in your neighborhood and they used to have the Pollet River run.... do they still?
Hello. The video is very interesting, I am also on a journey to live in the forest, camping, hunting, cooking. hope to bring everyone moments of relaxation and entertainment.
Good job learning new skills. Time to look for a spray deck. Get more practice on small stuff until you are both more comfortable and then hit some bigger water !

That would have been an awesome experience to learn from a pro like that . Thanks for sharing ..

Hi from a wet and rainy day here in Syracuse NY USA
Look tough! But a lot of fun guys. 👌
Hey Mike and Sandra.... thanks for posting the great video. Just curious, I used to live in down in your neighborhood and they used to have the Pollet River run.... do they still?
What is that awesome red boat being soloed? Looks a.bit like an OT Penobscot with reworked gunwales?
Sandra says "......a little bowdrill competition". And Mike says.."And Sandra's going to win". SMART MAN !!!
well done ! :)
Adorei a cor do caiak, verá porque 👉. 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷 Parabéns Bela escolha.👍

I think the best learning tool would be to look at your cam footage, and I'm sure you did. Also nice water fall.
Question, what was the name of the river you guys were canoeing?
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
spoiler alert: the canoe instructor is simon, obviously
:)
Sir
First
Nice Video
