Riverboard Papparrazzi

Riverboard Papparrazzi

I love to create, and if I can create and enjoy whitewater & h2o at the same time, it’s a perfect day. Before GoPro’s hit the market, I did a lot of filming by hand while riverboarding. Here I am in Italy, filming a bunch of French hydrospeeders on the...
Dropping in, Kiyotsu River

Dropping in, Kiyotsu River

To get to this point you have to punch a tough hole and then turn a blind corner – then the rapid begins. I was riverboarding with a bunch of pro kayakers, who’d run it a few days previous. This day was higher water than they’d done it (and turned...
SUP Rio Savegre

SUP Rio Savegre

I love to standup paddleboard, whether in the ocean or in rivers. The Rio Savegre in Costa Rica is a great stretch of class 2 with some 3’s interspersed and makes for a challenging but fun whitewater SUP run. Photo by Keilyn.
Surfing Corkscrew, Guatemala

Surfing Corkscrew, Guatemala

Corkscrew is a hole on the Rio Cahabon in Guatemala that everyone avoids by skirting it to the left. I thought it looked like a fun surf, so I jumped in and took a few bouncy rides. It was fun, but incredibly violent. Pic from video by Paul...
High Water Rafting, El Chorro

High Water Rafting, El Chorro

By chance I ran into kayaker Sam Drevo while driving past a fruit stand in Costa Rica, and he invited me to come run the river with him and his (then) business partners. After a long day running the Rio Division and Rio Savegre, on a whim we decided to go check out El...
Rigormortis Flight

Rigormortis Flight

Running class 5 Rigormortis on Clear Creek in Colorado, I knew I absolutely didn’t want to hit the hole on river left. But dropping into a hole just upstream flipped my riverboard upside down, leaving me deep in the water basically swimming on my own. As I...
Champagne Falls, Canyon Creek

Champagne Falls, Canyon Creek

One of the first days on the river that I used the new foam hydrospeed I’d built after returning from France was on Canyon Creek in Washington State. I’d run it before on the foam and duct tape riverboards, but the hydrospeed was much better – more...

Fluid Anvil

Fluid Anvil

Fluid Kayaks – the ANVIL I’ve said a lot about the Anvil, as it’s the best riverboard I’ve ever used. It is a hydrospeed-style riverboard modeled after the French foam hydrospeeds, and it was designed by my friend and legendary riverboarder...
