foot entrapment..worst nightmare

[AdrianTregoning]

Stupid K1 paddler.... I don't even see them wearing helmets. I don't get that at all.... This never surprises me, too many chaps out there with zero river knowledge. Take care, and paddle safe!!!

@electriclee1 Wearing helmets isn't being pretentious. It's using common sense. Which none of these "chaps" have...

[gregmazen99]

@zonzeven Yes they did. they got in contact with the dam that was releasing the water for the race and they got it turned off
