Learning Vertical Whitewater Kayaking - Pucon Kayak Retreat Advanced Week
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 фев 2025
- Ira - What a way to conclude my whitewater kayaking time in Chile with Pucon Kayak Retreat! I knew the final few days would be the most challenging for me. But it would also allow me to put everything I learned this week into practice. The Advanced Kayak Week was a wonderful experience that I am so glad I didn’t pass on. From the moment I first hopped on the river to the last days I was able to see progress & learn techniques I could bring back with me to the States. Big thank you to Pucon Kayak Retreat for this opportunity!

Wild times! Thank you again to Pucon Kayak Retreat!
It was such a cool experience :)
LOVED hearing your story! What an amazing experience. So thankful that you had the opportunity to do this. The WHITE water was BEAUTIFUL and those waterfalls just gorgeous! Congrats on a successful trip! You've come a LONG way from those first trips down the beginners channel at the WWC!
Always exciting to look back on how far you come!
That was absolutely awesome. That takes a lot of courage in physical strength. Overcoming such heights and depth s has to be tremendous for the mind body and soul
Going over that last waterfall was amazing to watch.
Just doing it is definitely showing great fortitude. I'd be thinking oh God just help me survive it! 😀
Great video. Great performance and also a great narrative by wonderful you. Super
Well said! Glad you enjoyed it!
I imagine this has to be insanely fun! Even as someone who doesn't care for heights.
Haha! As stated heights are my favorite but it was a ton of fun, especially the double drop -Ira
Fantastic, great job. ❤
Thank you! 😄
You did great...Alto Palguin is a Waterfall school :-)
It certainly is & a great training ground. I wish there was a section like this in the southeast. -Ira
Great story
Thank you, glad you liked it -Ira
First off love the story telling. Jerry, what do you use to shoot your long lens shots? I’m getting familiar with my GoPro but kinda interested in photo/video boating
Thanks!! :)
I used a Sony a6700 with a 18-105mm lens for my time in Chile. Its a fantastic camera and a fantastic all around lens, since I dont want to be switching while I'm on the water. Thanks for watching!
Bump for the algo. 🫡
Thank you! :)
