He's on his way! He's already such a sick kayaker!

This is positive peer pressure in action and I love it.

Bomb proof rolling skills, fuelled by gallons of adrenaline required there!! 😂

That first gorge was rowdy! Every time I thought that looks hard, the next shot was even worse. I really don't know how you fit in a kayak with balls that big :)

SUCH an epic video. This is one of the first videos i’ve seen that i’m scared with matty. I’m a beginner kayaker that’s watched these insane vids for a while now. Now that i’ve been in the water some I can actually appreciate just how small we are compared to the river. Some of the holes on that river are mad scary. But the risk is what makes it all worth it, especially when it goes right!

Dude, that gorge run was gnarly AF with those narrow, undercut walls!

He said no I am not fine 😂

@@petrhermanadventures9509 yeah I don’t think he was joking either, just the way that it was pieced together was humorous though, but yeah, I agree with you

That rapid at 3:52 would not make me feel fine either!!

Off the hook

green boat shredding that first river!!! Took that rock wall like a man, hangs onto his paddle and just rolls up! no big deal. I'm guessing Bren is in his firecracker because he was seeing a lot of sky! That was stout!

Ok that looks terrifying as hell in those tighter spots... im sure its fun as hell for the experienced kayaker.

This is how I feel when I go down a flatwater section that's moving slightly quickly

Great River MUCH higher than a I ran it way back in the day -can't remember how long ago. Look at running the river by Çağlayan North Turkey on the Black Sea Coast. Loads of creeks there.

Well done boys! I knew these canyons will be paddled one day in high flows too.

I like seeing the swims and rescues too. I think over the years I have learned a lot about rescue but every time you see one I think we all learn a little, plus if your are not swimming once in a while it's time to step up your game

Absolutely insane footage, amazing edits

One of my favs yet, great shots, perfect music, really showed the chaos!

Man that looks fun!

Gnarly! Matty killed it!!!

Wow! That was pushy as all hell. Once you hit Play , there's no pause for sure! Luckily no one mashed their knuckles or broke a paddle. And no elbow guards? You guys are monsters.

Absolutely amazing kayaking, I went out here years ago on a trip at way lower water, that top gorge is so deep such a serious section of whitewater absolute respect to you all. We didn't go in to that section but did the last gorge down to a road bridge from what I remember.

I'm still new to kayaking, and after that video, I needed to watch a nice steady river touring and camping video with chilled music! Amazing content, cheers

Hello Bren. What you do is crazy. I didn't get to paddle with but had the chance to meet you when you went to Kenya to paddle the Tana, upper Thiba and other rivers in Western Kenya. It would be nice to see you back in Africa to do a second descent on the Rusizi (a large volume white water river in Rwanda) right on the boarder🤠.

I love the old school kayak video feel you did with this one by throwing in some great punk rock music. You even threw in a little "you gonna eat that" at the end. I totally feel for your buddy and his getting stuck in his head. I'm that exact kayaker getting stuck in my head when things get pushy and unknown.

That was fucking gnar, I know go pro doesn't do it justice

Wow. Serious water! At 5 mins in when you rolled up did you actually know what way the river was flowing? The boils were huge! Kudos!

Three questions for you Bren... a) How controllable (or otherwise) did you find the Firecracker's stern in all that mayhem? b) How did the Firecracker compare on those runs with the Ripper 2.0 in terms of stability and nailing lines? c) You obviously have no problem running big, boily water in a half-slice, BUT are there any advantages over a non-slice in doing so? Cheers, Dave.

Definitely got some old school vibes from this edit - nice seeing some smaller kayaks on the big stuff again. I was getting bored of the big boat trend. Watching how you hit the lines in the Firecracker and how the boat reacts it might be worth considering a back to back to back to back kayak demo on an Alpine line this summer. Show the same line in 4 different sizes of kayak, from Jed to Firecracker to Ripper to Scorch? Just a thought...

The whitewater on that first gorge run just looked so chaotic. I can imagine Matty feeling ill at ease running that! The comment followed by that swim footage at the end made me smile! BTW Bren, what's with the dead caterpillar on your upper lip? Did Adrian infect you? ;-)
