The Wainui River in New Zealand's Bay of Plenty has to be one of the sickest Grade 5 whitewater runs in the country. Containing a bunch of epic rapids including a clean 60 footer, the Wainui is pure gold. Join Ben Brown and the Okere Falls massive as they hit the Wainui after a night of heavy rain and get amongst her whitewatery goodness! more at http://benbrown.co.nz

  • can't stop watching this, it deserves far more views than it has

  • So yes I commonly drop my paddle when I go over a 40 foot drop. Only to grab it immidiately after I land to finish out the rest of the class 5 rapid. No prob. JUST KIDDING. I'm not Ben brown and thus lack the skill to do so.

  • ben bro, absolutely loved this vid, not only you, but everything about it including the editing, so pro!

  • Who disliked this? must have been an accident. that was awesome!

  • @ntilley88 people have been shot for nothing

  • fully sick.... out of control..... epic....insane.... what more can i say??

  • @TheGobblefobble

    Oh and its very clear to see that the two waterfalls used are completely different.

  • @TheGobblefobble

    Well, GoPro took the footage from 2 different waterfalls and mashed them together. The first part has the paddler plugging in off a 50+ footer. The next thing he is landing it as a boof. The problem is that GoPro labelled it all as the one waterfall.

    GoPro have editted some very good videos but that was just sacrilege to some great kayaking footage. Why didnt they just put this up instead of mangling the footage together?

  • @ntilley88 I'm sorry, but what did GoPro do that was was so evil?

  • @burtonboards15

    Yeah its a disgrace what GoPro did to the footage. People have been shot for less.

  • did anyone else notice that they cut two different drops together for the go pro commercial? This video is sick keep up the amazing work ben!
