| Nice work. Crazy that the Tye footage is so high/turbid that it's hard to tell the difference between Robe and Tye. |

Damn, Sam. Awesome and terrifying to behold.
How high was it during the section of you dropping Last Sunshine? That rock in the center near the landing zone is nearly pouring over. Faceplant looked fairly the same. But I know better than to assume it wasn't absolutely huge. Catcher's Mitt, on the other hand, was undeniably gigantic. I could tell by the curling wave on the right at the top. You just had to boof the Catcher's Mitt, though, didn't ya? FOR GOD'S SAKE, MAN!! The pencil sharpener at the bottom of Catcher's mitt was a monster. Glad you moved right or maybe you'd still be there. I saw Ben's comments, and all the while I'm looking for footage of Hotel California, wondering how I missed it. Conversation: damn, Kid. I plugged it into a tv, so I'm standing there watching. Suddenly I noticed my legs were trembling. "Oh: THAT'S Hotel Cali" and I spotted the big rock on R.Right. Gulp 
Rad. I kinda wish it had titles of rapids at various flows, though. I mean, to serve some informational purposes, since you're boldly going were (few) paddlers have gone before. Cool footage. With the proliferation of gopros, I could lose an entire day if I wasn't careful, just watching kayak porn. Getting lots of footie of the Middle Middle at, like, 1500 n sh*t. With you I know I'm investing my time wisely. Thanks for that |

| JP for the first Robe section the flow was between 6.3 and 6.1 the second section was the 9 feet day. The only footage that I felt was good was Catchers mitt (the rapid you see before Hotel) and the Hotel footage. I thought about putting the names in I think it's a great idea, I just don't know much about editing yet. |

That's a good edit Sam. Although for the unknowing it's difficult to distinguish b/w Robe and TT. You should include some of your more 'lame' footage just as some 'filler'. By any measure that would count for something... oh, and where Eagle Falls!? Looking forward to the next edit! Keep 'em coming... ------------- |

When the last clip of paranoia popped in there, for just a second I was thinking, wait I don't remember that on Robe, then the memory kicked in.... agree with Harms put more of your "lame" filler in there. It's like telling some guy driving a beat up 82 rabbit that your Bently is not a luxury car because it is not plated in solid gold.... |

Yup, agreed, Sam.
we will hapily view your "Lame" footage. (Can we even call it "footage" anymore?) Yeah, after reading Phil's post I was prepared for the Robe/TopTyeHigh mix. I spotted Paranoia, and Alpine Falls, but there were some bouldery chunks in there I did not recognize at all. I'm not really familiar with Top Tye all that well though. |

Yeah I really dug the Faceplant/Catchers Mitt sequence. That curler on the bottom right run out of Catchers Mitt was big. I really like threading through there it is always a challenge. Hard to imagine being in that apid at 9'. Still kinda confused about that one in particular. Looked pretty damn big as (I said: judging by the waves at the top). Also looked like the rightside had a smooth toungue going down it.
Anyway, I watched it a few times. |
