I don't know if you can still consider that Rafting the Triple Crown, although it is still amazing... That one chunk was impressive, because the first line through Zed might have gone in a Cat because of the quality of the line, but the second one with the two guys, they were all over the place, in anything other than a CC that would have been destructive to say the least.

That is some impressive video. Watching the Site Zed footage made me nervous.
The theme of the descents of the Stikine this year continues to be that everyone agrees that it is the most special and powerful river they've ever paddled.

I wonder how long they were in that eddy before they deployed the sea anchor technique. Homeboy #2 styled it, #1 and #3, I'll bite my tongue.

I watched the site zed stuff at work so I haven't heard the audio, but I'm def putting that on stereo when I get home.

You gotta be kidding, As soon as that guy trying to guide the double oar boat went postal I turned the sound off. That method seems pretty poor and so did their lines.

You mean there were parts where that guy was not going postal? Must have missed it...

Cramer's pretty steezy on the oars.

Why is the one guy in the two-man boat wearing a climbing helmet? Why do they like to yell at each other so much?

Maybe it had ear muffs to mute out that nut case, prolly blown off from being stuck in every hole. Not to derail from this awesome acomplishment but why do they bother with the dual oar set up. They have another vid on tumwater at 10k. They just bang into eachother the entire way down, miss every stroke and run it top to bottom on there side.

Holy Sheep sh*t, amazing video, I only pray I never have to be in a boat with Mike or Nate (really which ever one was the screamer), sounded like he was getting the hershy highway plowed along with being drowned at the same time! Course I can't critisize too much, I probably would have been crying!
