Swisha island solo camping trip
While the rest of the crew was gone to Gauley fest, I decided it was time to go explore and camp in an area of Swisha I’ve wanted to see for a while. I debated hiking in to that spot but kayaking felt like it was a lot better of an option. No risk of trespassing by accident while getting there, more effort, and better time on the water.
Ps: I’ve been absolutely crazy busy lately with school, sports, and work… This is why I had to make the decision to skip the subtitles on this video, as they are the most time consuming editing feature that I use. Also, camping videos where there’s lots of talking require a lot more. Turn up your volume and enjoy!

Getting out my BIG BOY PANTS! - Rouge 7 sisters 70CMS
Просмотров 1,5 тыс.14 дней назад
As soon as we knew the extreme slalom race on the Rouge waterfall section wasn’t cancelled, we decided to make the rally in order to get the chance to run this section at a stout level with plenty of safety. The weather was a little bit murky, but it was nonetheless a great and very stout time!
Beaverfest Ep 4. - Stone valley of the Raquette
Просмотров 111Месяц назад
Here we go, final day of Beaverfest… and most definitely not the least. We made the rally to catch the release on the Raquette which is definitely the river that had me the most nervous. It was harder, bigger, more technical… on top of that, I had seen many videos and heard many stories that inspired fear of that river in me. However, I gathered my feelings, put on and it ended up being one of ...
Beaverfest Ep 3. - Moshier-Eagle combo
Просмотров 116Месяц назад
On day 3 of Beaverfest, we stepped it up a notch and hit the Moshier and Eagle sections of the Beaver. Moshier section delivered some sweet little moves, a few nice waterfalls and a nice big long rapid at the end; Moshier falls. After that, we went over to the Eagle section to do some of the tighest and steepest whitewater I’ve ever experienced. That being said, it was so far tye best day at Be...
Beaverfest Ep 2. Taylorville shred + bonus Moose lap
Просмотров 120Месяц назад
Day 2 of Beaverfest, we rallied to Taylorville. Even if it’s said to be the easier section of the Beaver, it turns out it was still an amazing little class III section that is very easily lapped. Afterwards, we rallied to the Moose again which was absolutely amazing as always with that river.

Just a day in the life of a video boater

Video boating. Consists of racing to a rapid, getting out in a specific spot, and filming a rafting trip come down this rapid. Then, you get back in your kayak and race accross a flat pool to get ahead of the rafting trip to rinse and repeat around 8-10 times on the Ottawa river. This process makes you strong, fit, and most importantly a very smooth kayaker. Come along as I show you just anothe...

Well will you look at that! More rain brought up the Dumoine to 50CMS and I’m off work… guess it’s time for a canyon lap! Little did I know this was going to be one of the most incredible runs I’ve been on. On top of that, the day was quite eventful.

After many days of hard work video kayaking on the river, da boys finally got a mutual day off. With Benny C and J Mac, we rallied in his car to go meet up with Ma yo, Dom, and Seb at the Blanche to go huck a super esthetic 25 feet waterfall. I’m super stoked to have run such a tall waterfall! The feelings are quite unbelievable. Afterwards, we strapped the kayaks down and headed to the Elizabe...

This was the tail end of once again this absolutely amazing summer rainfall. It also felt great t...
What an EPIC finish - Ottawa main + middle 12ft Antix
Просмотров 3413 месяца назад
After an entire 2 weeks of shredding in Canada with Lev, spending a day on the mighty Ottawa river was a non negotiable, especially since the gauge was reading at just over 12ft, giving us big and warm water. We started with the main channel (which I did with no nose plugs by the way) and then mived to a more playful middle lap, with also gettibg to run elevator shaft at pretty much prime level...

Some of the STOUTEST sequences I’ve run! - Fildegrand river 99.8 June lap

After all this rain, as well as the runs we managed to get on, it was clear that we had to check out the Fildegrand, one of the best creek runs in the Ottawa valley. We had concerns it was gonna be too high judging on the water levels we had on the surrounding streams. When we got to the put in, we were pleasantly surprised with a gauge reading at 99.8, a single centimetre higher then we had la...
Warm water, high water, and absolute CLASSIC! - Schyan river summer lap at high flow
Просмотров 1523 месяца назад
After doing Deux-rivieres, we knew that the Ontario side didnmt get anywhere near the amount of rain that the Quebec side and the Zecs did. With the Penniseault being too high to run with just Lev, Trypp, Brent, and I, we decided to rally over to the Schyan as the flows around the watershed were quite promising. When Trypp and I scouted the mouth of the river, what we saw was a LOT of water esc...
Once in 20 year opportunity- Deux-rivieres creek summer lap 10CMS
Просмотров 1463 месяца назад
With the amount of rain we got at Kil fest, we started thinking about wether or not some rivers would go up. However, we didn’t exactly expect Deux-rivieres creek to come in, as well as all the other spring runs to be at PROPER flows! When we got to the river, it was obvious though that the level wasn’t well correlated with the aumond gauge. However, it was still a fantastic time!

      I would say it’s a 100% worth it if it’s pumping. To be honest with you, it’s better higher and it usually hits its peak at the initial thaw when the ice melts on the Ottawa. As soon as you can paddlr accross that’s when I would try to go for flood like levels.
