      Not having your throw bag was poor judgement. And being bare foot won't help much with getting to where you need to be in a hurry. Never depend on the guy flushing out.

    • @TruckHouseLife
      @TruckHouseLife  Před rokem +4

      My buddy flew in from out of state for a few days and borrowed all that paddling gear, the throw bag wasn't in the gear bag when we got there. He had run the run a lot and I had never ran it, so he put my throwbag in his boat, 1st time I had ever given my throwbag away and of course lol! Rob's actually an awesome boater, just random stance.

    This area is home for me,..and i only fish here,...as i have never kayaked before,...but have seen alot of them go down the river in Kayake's.....
    The Landscape is Beautiful along the CHILCO RIVER ,and think you'd all enjoy the trip...and experience....

  • @walthanas
    @walthanas Před rokem +6

    That's a pretty cool run, and your drone footage definitely helped see the lines better!
    Unfortunately, Rob's incident at Toilet Bowl didn't look good!
    I'd think that someone running class V stuff would have his own throwline (or preferably two), and not need to rely on you for carrying yours on the river, making him run something that potentially gnarly without any safety set... It's one thing to borrow stuff to be able to run something fun, it's another to do it in a way to be safe. Him not having shoes on such a run also didn't impress me: what if he had to walk out of there?
    just curious Did I see it right and didn't your boat have floatation bags in the back?

They're better in every way compared to the Onewheel, I've got a Veteran Sherman which will do 45mph and up to 75 miles of range so its the perfect shuttle vehicle when paddling by yourself or with only one vehicle. The newest euc's have suspension so they can handle single track, jumps, etc!! I ride mine all over the Erie Canal Trail in upstate NY.

    Man I know it was already said, but seeing that rapid with the history plus you saying that this is a no no swim... you NEEDED TO SET A SAFETY even if you don't have a throw bag at least get in your boat in case your buddy swim. At least you can get to him faster if he is drowning. Next time make a better judgement call I was really worried.

    @scdrescher1 Před rokem

    We entered a turkey boat (boat full of guides) in the race back in the late 90’s. When we were doing the scout run the day before we caught up to a boat from the Air Force academy. Apparently the only person in the boat with any river experience was a cadet who used to be a guide and he was a bit anxious. When we got out to scout the first drop he very subtly came up to us and asked if we could keep an eye on them as he was under orders form his sergeant to guide the trip and he was the only person in the boat who knew just how out of their league they were. We ran the drop and eddied out and as they dump trucked on the pillow on the first rock we got some throw bag practice. After pulling in the sergeant who had FOG eyes (Fear Of God) our head boatman took him aside for a few quiet moments of common sense infusion. Thankfully the fear from swimming the first rapid and our guy’s tact and diplomacy were able to push past his “conquer at all costs” attitude and we helped them get their boat up to the tracks where they could walk it up to the flats for a nice upstream paddle back to their shuttle. If you listen, Earl the river will tell you everything you need to know. If you don’t listen, he will trash you and maybe send someone over to translate. I won a pair of neoprene socks that year……my feet are happy.

    Gruesome twosome, no shoes, no rope, geez guys. I wanna like this but I just keep thinking about what idiots y’all are. If my buddy showed up to a class V run like Gore without shoes or a rope, we wouldn’t go. I remember back in the late 90s in Steamboat when my boss described in detail pulling his buddy out of there and performing CPR for HOURS before rescuers could come and pronounce him dead. Not trying to be a jerk, but hopefully if new or non-boaters see this video they’ll see some of these comments, too.
