A Stout local project

- Slowly piecing together one of my local project. I first put on that river in 2021, I ended up swimming, destroying a boat and loosing a paddle on the upper section. I went back a few weeks later to First D a sequence that I called "la tête au carré" ( • POV La Tête au carré ). This spring I finally caught the lower canyon with the right amount of water.

So many sketchy takeouts above certain death...
I've watched a lot of kayaking videos and this is one of the craziest I've seen. Solo, first descent, V+, very continuous, long technical lines, sieves, undercuts and wood everywhere, running parts of the river blind, and catching tiny must make eddies at the last second to avoid deadly unrunnable rapids.
Be careful out there, Nouria
Right! This video scared me. Holy crap that was dangerous! Man she is badass!
Love your vest so much and highly recommend it myself!
Wow, that was intense steep creeking and alone no less! Skill, lots of practice, and natural physical abilities, along with intelligent courage. Nouria you got it all! Thank You for sharing your white water adventures and travels. I always enjoy and appreciate what you do.
pumping up my adrenaline just watching it😮
On the edge of my seat watching this one
That is about the mankiest, gnarliest run I've ever seen
Sometimes I don't know what to admire more: her stamina when portaging the craziest and most exhausting paths or her immense whitewater kayaking skills!
If it weren’t for the fact she also wins races, I’d give a nod to the epic solo portage adventures.
Pure Adventure 👏
well that was incredible, i think i’m going to have nightmares imagining running a section that full on.
One of the signs of a great kayaker is one who knows her or his limits, and is willing to get out and walk if conditions warrant it. Nouria is one of those great kayakers.
I'm a bit worried about that fence or whatever it is which crosses the river at 0:08 in the video. If a lot of people start running that creek and the water gets a bit higher, that could end up being a man made strainer which could kill someone. That should either be placed much higher, or removed altogether. No doubt Nouria had that scouted ahead of time and knew she could get under it easily. Hopefully others will scout before attempting to run.
Great video, and as always with Nouria, that was some incredible paddling. It was a master class in how it's done.
"The easy parts have been pretty full on..." OK, so they were the easy parts... Then you get back in and set off like a frikking rocket! Awesome!! Thank you for taking us along for the ride. It was wild, especially the "portage" near the end :-)
Honestly this is much stouter then most of what you see on youtube with big drops. Tight and technical with constant must make moves done with near perfect precision. Well done!
Tu es tout simplement incroyable, moi je dis chapeau bas.
That was scary AND awesome. 😁
Wow that sieve right after the eddy at 9:25 is no joke. If you miss that eddy you are having a bad time.
Thats some full on creeking there girl.
Incredible edge control.
Thanks for letting us all 'ride along'.

We have a couple of very similar streams here, just without the death sives. 70m/km gradient, similar continuous character, rounder volcanic boulders, very very pushy with that sort of volume, just cleaner. Makes for really nice connect the dots padding at lower water, or equally desperate scramble boating at high flow. Yay for local micro creeks!
A lot of parts of it remind me of the Teton river in east Idaho.
Incroyable! ❤
I really like this low edit/no edit footage. It let's me see what's actually happening with the water and the strokes and angle and such.
Oh que ça a l'air bon cette section 🔥Belles lignes
Difficoult & dangerous. Only for great kayakers. Congratulations
Nice lines. Ballsy run🌊🙈
"The easy parts" comment had me laughing.
Dane Jackson is the male version of Nouria Newman
so sick
🔥🔥
Holy fuck batman! What’s up with that fence?!?!??? 😮
That looks like a river that kills people.
C’est bien hostile comme section. Ça la rend vraiment belle (en vidéo).
👉💪💪💪Крута!!!)
Still SENDING!!!
Bonjour c’est top, ou c’est?
Bonjour Nouria. Tu me fais peur. Alors si c’est l’objectif de ta vidéo c’est réussi. D’un point de vue de la sécurité c’est ce qu’il ne faut pas faire : faire seule une rivière. Ce qui me gêne c’est qu’en regardant ta vidéo tu fais du spectateur un complice de tes imprudences. Tu as le droit de vivre ta passion pour toi comme tu l’entends pour exister. De là avec ta notoriété à faire la promotion sur CZcams d’une pratique qui n’est pas recommandée c’est assez discutable car pour beaucoup de tes admirateurs, dont je fais partie, tu es un exemple de partage de la passion. Je pense que cette vidéo réalisée en rivière avec d’autres kayakistes aurait été tout aussi intéressante et n’aurait rien enlevé à la difficulté et au plaisir de la visionner sur CZcams. Donc prends des risques pour toi si tu le veux mais pas pour moi. Bien cdlt.
Totally agree. We have lost too many friends to the river. Viewing solo kayaking is a moral conundrum, even if amazing, the viewer is stoking a fire that puts even the greatest of kayakers at risk: even Nouria. So courageous.
Every dead body on K2 was an extremely motivated and courageous person... So maybe slow down!
