How was it KTW?

People make their lines? Any first timers through Neds or the Needle?

Great Job everyone... that is such a fantastic rapid in every aspect.

It was good. One swim but it was minor, at the very bottom. So yeah, pretty much all good lines. No one on the needle, everyone took airplane.

A few people went for a second run so hopefully the good lines continued =).

Also, for those of you who were on the trip, I did end up finding my wallet.

BD is awesome! We all ran airplane. It was styled by all. Thanks Dave and Tom for the line and confidence building pep talk.

No swims. We all hit Airplane, both times down. It was an absolute blast. I hit the line better the first time, only flipped once in a hole below the fence. Second time I flipped right next to Chris' Crack. And futher down. Had a bit of a bumpy ride that time.

Someone else should describe what my second one looked like. I don't actually know what I got hung up on the second time I flipped, and I spent too much time upside down to remember where I was.

IT WAS A BLAST.

Thanks David, we're all stoked to do it again. 

I'll post second run pictures in a minute. =)

edit: I guess we had one swim. I didn't even see it...

Yeah, that was fun today.  Ashley had some solid combat rolls on the 2nd run.  As she started through airplane turn, there were three of us yelling, "Paddle, paddle, paddle!!!"  Her line was too low but her grace under pressure was very impressive.  I think she rolled three times in about 15 seconds!  All perfectly executed.

I didn't see the swimmer either.  So the rest of you will have to guess

Thanks David and Tom for guiding and Jon and Andy for support

Staying upright is always a good thing though... I've been told that I need to work on paddling harder.

Thanks for the compliments, Arn!

Darn!  I wish I could have been there too to see the first runs.  All this time I waited and you go with someone else.  I'll most likely be out there tomorrow if the MM doesn't sky rocket.  Is anyone up for joining me?

  Good job!!  Adam made his first run through on Saturday morning, and did another lap through in a playboat.  He got a little close to the CRACK also!!  Just say NO to CRACK!  That thing is nasty.
   Good job to everyone!!  Thats a big feather in the ol' cap!
Peace
 
Sure?

Guys in my group-

Who took Abe's (the photographer at Boulder, works for Wave Trek) card after the first run? I'm looking to get his email addy... =)

If anyone else has his address... That would work also.
