Voss vier

Voss Vier…

This rapid is one of those rapids you look at everyday. This one is 500 m from the Voss festival camp. You drive past is everyday! You look at everyday! You want to run it. But… but you still have that feeling inside you..
-how big is it when you stand there?
Then you drive past it and forget it.. I´m to tired to look at it today..

One day when we were tired and drove back to camp we saw a big crowd on the bridge..
-whats on now say john?!
Parked the car. Got the camera and walked out to the bridge.
NZ boys Sam and Mike are fired up and paddled it…
Sam got his ass kicked in the main drop but got out after a pretty nice beating.
Mike got his boof and landed smoothly..
This rapid was really cool to see some one paddling. It is a big rapid..
