This can't fail

I started running Westwater canyon of the Colorado 13 years ago, and I have since run it about 80 times. On one of those first trips I noticed this slide. Every time I have passed it since I have wanted to slide it in a kayak. Wednesday I took the plunge. We had beautiful weather. Greg came and brought his raft. It was nothin but good, good times.

Do you know the last words you ever hear a redneck say before he gets hurt?
Hey Y'all, WATCH THIS!!
I prefer the phrase,"This Can't fail"

Helping to prove Newtons 1st law of Motion
(For you non studious types, it is that an object in motion tends to stay in motion unless acted on by another force.)

Proving the Law of Gravity
Who knew that Science could be so enjoyable.
Next time I go paddling we'll work on the Space/Time continuum

Great trip! Thanks again for getting me on a river. I've still got some music for you.

Thats the ledge we always jumped off of when we were kids. I guess some people never grow up. Looks fun. What was it flowing?
