- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 27 มี.ค. 2022
- Hey guys! This is really old footage that I have finally finished because I’m behind!
I got on Chattooga Section IV for the first time with a group! I’ve heard so many things about this section and it’s consequences, that it got me a little worried! It's a legendary whitewater section, with tales of risk and danger!
It turned out to be a great time! Thanks Qu for the lead!
I believe it was this trip that allowed me to finally become comfortable(ish) with scouting bigger rapids!

WYFF News 4: • 2nd Chattooga River de... - กีฬา
Side note, I was watching Pete’s vids when you were just starting out…dang! You’ve really come a long way!!!
Wow thanks! I appreciate it :) Thanks for watching haha!
My favorite river on the planet! I feel so fortunate to live super close to the Chattooga. Section 4 is amazing and beautiful and definitely worth that long lake paddle at the end, lol.
Absolutely agree haha! Thanks for watching :)
I have some stories from this lake:
This one time I was fly fishing near the L’Eau falls before it got dammed and I saw these four guys paddling down the river at a wicked fast rate; I tried to warn them of the falls but they were too busy trying to get this guy to put his life jacket on; never heard of them since!
Boof strokes man, both attempts at sockem dog there was no boof stroke. The first landing you almost had to surf but lucked out. That’s not a pleasant pourover to get window-shaded in.
Yup! Something I'm working on! Thanks for watching :)
Thanks for going for me so I don't have to. It looks so much fun maybe I'll be better one day with a group of people.
It is a lot of fun, it’s a lot more fun when it’s with a super solid safety crew-Tony
Dude, you gotta never stop putting those "river queen" jabs in your videos, I swear my sides are in stitches from the laughter, catchin me off guard hard-core. Never quit, I know and we all know you and and Pete are close and you're definitely thankful to his help as well as the many others, so friendly jabs are safe in my book, and a great way to show we care, but that jab sir was a dead to rights left hook from the blindside that hurts still from the laughter. Great video. Keep up good work and follow rule #1 Just don't die lol
Haha Pete loved it! I'm so glad to have had him be my kayaking mentor and hes been a huge reason for my progression! Thanks for watching haha! :)
Awesome video! It’s so refreshing to know I’m not the only one experiencing those emotions when kayaking. So cool to see my face on TH-cam lmao
haha thanks for watching buddy! You did awesome out there! Lets boat together more often!
Lauren is a great paddler. Love hitting the river with her. Nice work all around!
Yes! Shes awesome! Was really great to boat with her that day! Thanks for watching!
I like your videos. Good information and you don’t over talk things.
I appreciate that! Thanks for watching :)
Good video and run Jer! Chattooga is a great place if you just make sure to show her some respect.
Yes! I can't wait to go back! Thanks for watching! :)
Stepping it up! Good stuff! (River queens 🤣😭) (edit, I thought I had seen these lines before…River Kings vid?)
Haha yeah! I'm just super behind on footage lmao!
Good video as usual! How do you like the Strike paddle, and have you tried the Surge?
I love my strike! It’s so much more power than my old desperado haha! I have not tried the surge, but I tend to prefer smaller blades anyways! I’ve heard the surge is amazing tho! Anyways, thanks for watching!
Nice lines👌🏽
Thanks buddy! Thanks for watching :)
My husband and I used to guide on the Chattooga -it's where we met
Thats amazing :) its such a special river! Thanks for watching! :)
What was the level for your first run?
1.5 I believe! Not sure if thats low or high! Thanks for watching! :)
@@JerKayaks awesome thanks. I'm looking for my PFD there at some point too and have hear that 1.4-1.6 range is a good first-timer range. Just wondered where this was in that range, thanks!
Prediction. You will be running Great Falls MD/VA before the end of the year.
Woah! I hope so! Thanks for watching!
"Who wrote this script?" I'm dying 😂
Haha! Thanks for watching Heather :)
Section 4 teaches you how to run rivers more than any other river
Yes! Such a good section! Thanks for watching!
