Carnage Videos!! | Aaron and Zach's Mediocre Rafting Show
It's carnage week at Gear Garage! In this episode we take a look at a few carnage videos submitted by viewers. We also answered a couple viewer questions which led to a robust discussion about the importance of quick self-rescue. Much of the discussion came back to the importance of being able to get back in your boat quickly when running difficult rivers.
We also talked about the river classification system and a progression of rivers people can use to improve. In the discussion we referenced Zach's Northwest Cataraft Progression article.
Aaron was sick this week but still joined us with his microphone muted and managed to chime in via the comment section.
Here are the videos we reviewed:
• BoatSmith flip
• Throw Ropes Gone Bad
• Creature Craft
• Motor Rig Flip
Zach will be busy teaching Class IV Rowing Schools at Northwest Rafting Company for most of March, so the live show schedule will soon be a bit more sporadic.
The next Tuesday Q&A is scheduled for March 7th.
We want to thank this week's sponsor River Hardware where you can find the WWTC Throw Bags.
Aaron and Zach are generally live on YouTube on Fridays at 2:00 PM Pacific Standard Time.
