This video inspired me to actually paddle kayak off the Big Gorge in Llanberis and other water falls in Wales. I had the plesure of meeting Shaun at a rodeo world champs in Augsburg Eiskanal in Germany back in the 90's, what a bloke!
I was Captain Bede College O E Kayak Club in the 70's and simply lost boats from the GRP era . Well done you nutcases. I wish I could have joined ya ******
Hey Shaun, i heard rumors you ran the upper part of the Bad Gastein Ultra drop combo? we're currently looking into a full descent and are looking for more beta :)
Oh the Topo.... Too rounded, no rocker, no real way to control spin momentum other than with your paddle. Oh, and it's hole bait in bigger water. That being said, it was good at the time.
This did and still does inspire me . plus made me buy a Topo
leading the way Shaun and the boys Nicely done !!!

Jeez! That slide is a hell of a fall with no easy way out.
At the end, the guy says that someone will run it again. Has it been run? Are there videos of other people in the modern day running it?
I used to have YAK "Wet bum spurties" stickers on my paddles.. happy days drownproofing.
Shaun was very good at falling off stuff with little to no control.
And rodeo, 9 times U.K. champ
@@sbaldwin21 yeah... When rodeo was getting beaten up in a Cork which looked good at the time.
Interested to know what your negative beef with Shaun is, Tony?
@@rogerpalin5864 It's an observation. Not beef.
@@TKM11370 ok, so interested to know what’s the reason for your negative observation
such a great video
I didn't know anyone made this type of ww kayak in the 80s.

Maybe that fall didn't really go?
So interesting to watch after seeing the latest run by Scotty sherwell in person
Have you got a video of it. I want to see his line

Didn't Shaun suffer from back problems later in life? Can't imagine why.

Hey, don't put down the Topo, I still have mine stacked in with my other creekers and still love paddling it.
TOPO' s not dead !!!
