MANNING RIVER: Whitewater canoeing [OC1 & OC2] in Mad River Canoes with kids [GoPro]

[MnktoDave]

This looks like a fun run...and your youngest bow paddler already has a great draw stroke!

Nice to see the kids out, and having so much fun...

Looks like the kids are having great fun. Nice video, thanks for sharing. I've just started and can just about go in a straight line now!! I'm a better in a kayak.

Hi Hashticles,

Awesome video - and seeing it just reminds me that we really need to meet sometime for a paddle! I'm a good mate of Fat Paddler's and I've seen you in his vids before - my name is Travis and I own Paddle & Portage Canoes; importing Wenonah Canoes from the US as well as whitewater outfitting gear from Northwater. I'm always looking for other canoe fanatics to paddle with and it looks like you guys have some great times in open boats. Hope to catch up sometime.

Cheers

Hi hashticles

Great vid, thank you for creating and posting it. I'm located in sydney and also have a MR Legend 16RX. I'm really impressed with your outfitting, are those harmony flotation bags? Can you recommend somewhere to get them in Australia?

Hope you can help and that i see you on the water some day :-)

[hashticles]

@slyderrick @slyderrick Yes, the bags are Harmony, sourced from the US, and ordered through Priceusa. I'm not sure of anyone that sells them in Australia.

[slyderrick]

@hashticles Thanks so much - will check them out. Go well

Everything looks so beautiful! Just getting into the same sport myself :) Might have to pick up a couple of those helmet cams

The green mad river is the freedom solo and the red is the legend, ya?

[hashticles]

@toliveforthenow Affirmative.

nice one hashticles,.... those lucky kids!

Even if they don't turn out to be avid paddlers, they will draw strength from these experiences later in life.
