I was priveliged to share an eddy with Max a couple of times on that run through the esses on Sunday -- pretty impressive, couple of really nice combat rolls. Keep up the good work!

Mom: "He flipped over and went back up!"

Great memories to last a lifetime!

Way to go Max! Between you and Hunter, it looks like AR has some excellent young boaters coming up.Keep it up buddy. Props Rob, on bringing up a solid young boater. Seems like just yesterday max was in the inflatable on Lee, he sure has come a long way.

Great pictures and a great weekend.
Problem with the new paddlecat is Martha had so much fun running the falls that she wants to go all the time.
