I am really thinking about this.
I emailed the contact info and gave my information and asking what kind of help is there in case I would flip and not roll back up.

Sue,

I can take pictures if you want to participate.

Maybe this could just be a TCT side trip?

Default Winning Run

Here's a Go Pro video of the winning run in the Cuyahoga Falls race. It was posted by the winner on another paddling discussion board.

Glad I chickened out. When they responded to my email they recommend a first timer being at 400 to 500 cfs at old portage gauge. The same gauge I use for Kent.
It was about 800 cfs.

Great video and better paddlers than I will ever be.

Hope it will include the sudden upstream lurch in camera movement and my near flip
