I would always have Ben in my bow! He has such a great read on the water. The footage from the bow is so much better, I could see the lines I would have made. Great videos, you should be on Patreon, I would support it.
Hi Jeff! Yeah, definitely a great bow paddler to have in your canoe. He certainly makes our runs much easier and predictable. Appreciate the support. Not something I've looked into, but maybe in the future. Cheers
😄 I hear ya! You should check out our Thanksgiving canoe trip. I did you one better - I forgot parts for connecting the poles for a hot tent and had to turn back! But yes, lists are more important than ever. 🤫
Great video, its always exciting to watch you and Ben work together and conquer the rapids. Feel like we are along for the ride. Really great scenery!! Thanks for taking us along.--MARLYS
Looked like a lot of fun!! That Monty's beer is my all time favourite beer👍Love it!! I realized something on this video. How doing get me a TPP sticker🤔 Take care David🍻
That's great re Monty's beer. We'll have to share one together, preferrably on a trip! 😉 Buddy, you just said the word! I'll be in contact and send some over to ya!
Terrific Part 1! Nice to see you and Ben back out together. Chips are the best, never met a bad one! haha! Looking forward to the next part, thanks for sharing. :) :)
Whenever Ben and I trip together, whitewater is definitely high on the list of things to do! 😁 You bet re chips. 🙌 Great, see you next Tuesday Jacqueline! 😊
That's a lot more exciting than running the north branch. You guys didn't have a lot of time to make adjustments on some of those runs on the south branch. Are you gonna dump at the start of the next episode; I can't wait to find out.
Heck ya. I was very surprised to find that when I did the exploratory trip, so naturally I wanted to run it. It is a fast run, that's for sure, so yes, you have to be on your game. 😆 re dump! You'll see!
Amazing video David!! The dynamic duo back together. Have you considered tackling the mag from wahwashkesh? I would love to see yourself and Ben running canal, graves and thirty dollar rapids and the many others right to Britt
Thanks Scott! 😄 Yes we are. I certainly have considered it. I canoed through the area years ago, but we portaged around the rapids then as my partner wasn't into whitewater, but with Ben, for sure! Looks like Ben has already responded and now it's just a matter of making it happen! 😊
Great video! I noticed on your spray deck you have raised areas to deflect the water is that something you made or did it come that way? I am about to order the same one but I don’t see that option.
Hi Jonathan, thanks. Nope those are not an option, it's actually included in the spray deck! It is curved PVC piping that you install in the sleeve in front of the cockpit. I did a build video on the spray deck if you like to see what's involved. th-cam.com/video/r7e58ATIe7A/w-d-xo.html Good luck and enjoy your new deck!
Thanks for sharing. Another great video.
Anytime Dwayne, appreciate it!
I could count on Ben! The Bringer of Beers! Good Lads. Well done. Thanks for sharing David.
😆 Count Ben: The Bringer of Beers! Thanks Larry, you bet!
Great video David. Looks like you guys had a great time
Thanks Stephen, we certainly did!
Always learning stuff when watching your skillful work on the water. Keep up the good work. Thanks David!
Thanks a lot Tim. Appreciate you checking it out! 🙏

Man i love these videos everything is spot on, thanks for sharing!
Thanks so much! Really appreciate the comment. 🙏
Always fun to watch you and Ben work together to take care of that whitewater - great teamwork! 👍
Thanks buddy! 👊 Whitewater equals fun!
You guys make it look easy!
😄 It took many years of river running, mistakes, and even dumps! Thanks Michael!
I have to use a check list in my old age. I have forgotten my tent pegs once.

Great Video! I have a huge respect for the Magnetawan. I made a lot of portages on it.
Thanks Jimmy! Yeah, the Magnetawan is a great river, and some sections certainly need portaging! 😉
That was a lot of fun Dave! Thanks for posting!
You bet. Always a blast running whitewater! Thank buddy.
Always enjoy your videos, especially when Ben is in the bow. Always communicating and great digger! Fun rivers too!
Thanks so much folks! We work well together and we definitely have a lot of fun too! ☺
I use the List system, I write everything down and go by a list if I remember to grab it. lol
😆 Funny, we have list too! But even then, I've missed things. (I get lazy, go too fast, etc. 🙄😄)
You guys did an awesome job on the rapids that was really cool thanks 🇨🇦👍
Thanks a lot Tom! Glad you liked it! Cheers
Really enjoy your videos!!
Thanks a lot Melissa, appreciate it! 🙏

I think we can make that happen, right David ;)
You bet! 🙌

Adrenaline junkies, Dave and Ben!
Great video!
😝 You bet! We need this every often! 😉 Thanks Linda!
I must have missed your call when you set up this trip. :) Beautifully done! I must go there! Thanks!
😄 Too funny. Thanks Stephen! If I remember, I'll be sure to let you know next time we go!
