Wavesport Blogs Project X at Diagonal Ledges
Wavesport Blogs - So if you haven't heard already the Project X is where it's at. This boat is the best playboat I've ever paddled, hands down! Lately I've been paddling a lot with Bryan Kirk on the Upper Gauley and hitting up all of the little holes along the way. Wanting to get the X out on a wave lead us to Diagonal Ledges on the Lower, we liked! Here's a little video I put together of Bryan getting his groove on at Diagonal Ledges, enjoy!

Astral Currently Video Update from Upstate NY
Astral Currently - As the rain pounded in upstate New York Nicole and myself started driving north. Our first stop was the Inner City Strife wave where we met up with Jeremy Laucks, Bryan Hartman, and a few other of demshitz. After a few days of non stop surfing myself, and Jeremy met up with Matt Young and several others for a run down sections 3 and 4 of the Oswegatchie. This was a Moose like river but on a bigger scale. I believe Jeremy called this style of river "lake and huck".
Roaring Fork Kayakers Fear Canyon of the Elaho
Roaring Fork Kayakers - This is the final installment of Evan, Candace, and myself's trip to BC this summer. We headed for an evening run on the classic big water run in the upper squamish river valley drainage. As we bombed through some sweet rapids without scouting( Evan had done the run 3 years prior) Evan got stuck in a nasty hole and had an intense beatdown. I'll let the video tell the rest of the story.
adidas Sickline Kuchl Sessions started!
adidas Sickline - Last week the Kuchl Sessions have started! The water dropped and perfect waves started to run almost all day long. We arrived there on Friday afternoon. At the beginning of the day the waves were a bit too high for surfing on them with a kayak, but many surfers enjoyed them on their surfboards though.
