Whitewater disaster in Slovenia - 8 dead Paddleman New

Sad story, regardless.   <NT> FluidDruid New

What a nightmare scenario... axr6 New

Utterly horrible, I had the same thought. Very sad story. <NT> GRITS New

They were big open canoes. Seven people each, no PFD's... Looks like there are now 13 dead. Link to clip inside. Wilko New

Wow. Is the largest Darwin Group Award ever? <NT> Carnage_Asada New

Bad form, man. People died. What if it were your family? GRITS New

yeah, I know something about personal flotation.....come on.... Carnage_Asada New

This had nothing to do with activism.... It was a celebration of the last possible trip on the river. Wilko New

Point taken. Sorry. <NT> Carnage_Asada New

don't apologize.dude... blokhead New

problem is swift water safety isn't common sense to the non boating public, lifeofloon New

hmmm... blokhead New

Hey Louie, make upo your mind, will you! Either I'm gay or I'm hitting on women, but not both... <NT> Wilko New

Many many lives could be saved each year if the basic safety rules of various outdoor sports were taught in gradeschool <NT> PHILZZZ New

Too many outdoor sports to cover.  Schools can't cover core education topics well enough as is.   <NT> ezwater New

Look where the highest numbers of serious and fatal accidents occur and start there. Gordo New

Yea, but the training for the different water sports would not be the same... Paddleman New

public schools cannot teach students how to make change,  don't add anymore technical challenge to them..... <NT> OkieBoater New

Please enlighten me: what exactly about a full face helmet makes someone look gay? <NT> Wilko New

Well, in your case Wilko ...it actually does a swell job of covering up yur gayness! mOjo New

Actually, the defense is aimed more at my frustration with people judging others on their appearance... Wilko New

the full face part....Duh <NT> Louie New

I always wear mine, even on flatwater. When I wear a helmet, I want to have good all around protection. Wilko New

agree! SwimmerBill New

you wear a helment on flatwater????? you are gay. BTW just how many facial injuries have you seen? I've been doin this Louie New

So five is not enough for ya? smoot New

I realize the Saluda river near Columbia, SC is low, but how would it be to take a beginner down? <NT> ybnrml New

depends where you start... blokhead New

I've actually never been down it, but i checked AW and it seems very easy, all class II mostly <NT> ybnrml New

since blokhead has swam the entire thing , any average beginner should be fine <NT> kindyakker New

you've swam it, old man. back when dinosaurs still roamed. <NT> blokhead New

I would check with a Columbian who has run it high and low.  Low does not mean easy in increased gradient. <NT> ezwater New

pm me , this has been my home river for a lot of years . <NT> kindyakker New
