Don't believe the hype! Don't believe the hate!

In this special episode of InBetween Swims:The Whitewater Podcast, I speak with Team Leader Ben Stookesberry about Pedro Oliva's World Record run of the 128ft Salto Belo on the Rio Sacre in Brazil.

Ben speaks to the mechanics of running a 100+ footer, the controversy surrounding Pedro's landing, and the place that dropping big waterfalls has in the sport.

Jeff.... excellent interview.

Congrats to Pedro, Ben, and  Chris for the world record decent. 

Looking forward to Hotel Charlie next month in B'ham or Portland.
