So first off I would like to say…Thank You all for the love and positivity y’all showed in the comment war about the last post. I’m more than stoked to see all the people fired up to read and check out what I put up. I have been doing this blog for a long time now and sometimes I get lazy. However, if there has ever been a time to step up the amount of effort and media I put up, this is it. Much love to all the people out there that kayak for the love of the game and of course, the love of the river.

Back to the post…About 3 weeks ago Nico Buenaventura, a Santiago boater and long time friend, rallied us out of Pucon and south of go kayaking. Tour de Stout!!!!! So wammy, heading south on Ruta 5…first stop Salto Del Nilahue. Beautiful 60 foot ramping falls. But wait it’s not so much just tuck and drop…you got to style this thing and be all intact at the bottom, or else…there is an absolutely hideous undercut that could cause some serious problems for you. With luck we had Nico’s beautiful novia there to capture the action, and that she did with some badass photos…Gracias Nacha!
