Earlier this month, Todd and I made it out to the Clackamas River Festival near Portland, Oregon for some fun and games. It was a two day festival put on by Next Adventure, packed full of both rafting and kayaking events.


The coolest event of the weekend was the big air ramp where people hucked themselves off a huge ramp, flailing arms and all.

Andy Maser pulled off an airscrew while cracking a beer while going down the ramp, and Willi almost did a front-flip.

At the end of the day, first place went to Todd Baker with a double-air screw. YEA! Bloody knuckles and all!
