A little while back, I posted how my buddy Hobie has been pushing the limits of Stand Up Paddleboarding, logging first descents on whitewater runs like the Numbers and Gore Canyon.
Now it seems our friend and perennial ‘guy in the van down by the river’ Dan Gavere, has one-upped him. Behold the SUP waterfall 1st D.
The Goat draws a pretty funny analogy between SUP’ing and Rollerblading. That’s a little harsh, but the jury is still out for me on whether SUP on whitewater is cool, or more like bringing a knife to a gunfight.
Regardless, good on you Dan. I’m impressed.
