Yuki's Passion 1 Posted May 18, 2004 Share Posted May 18, 2004 Not yet, but I saw on the news a Japanese man drowned yesterday after their kayak flipped over. Two of his friends survived. Tragic... Link to post Share on other sites
jared 0 Posted May 18, 2004 Share Posted May 18, 2004 I think you'll find the type of kayak he is talking about carries just one person. I went rafting in Yamagata last weekend, good fun but snow melt is definately cold. Link to post Share on other sites

mattlucas 0 Posted May 18, 2004 Share Posted May 18, 2004 Sounds like a fun time. Kayaking looks cool. To bad moving water is scary Link to post Share on other sites
danz 0 Posted May 18, 2004 Share Posted May 18, 2004 nothing quite like surfing a glassy wave (except the powpow)... but big water scares the SH!$!$!$T out of me! danz Link to post Share on other sites
Fattwins 0 Posted May 19, 2004 Author Share Posted May 19, 2004 danz that last shot was pretty amazing. Im bummed that my good kayaking buddy is out cause I cant hit it up like I want to. If I flip over I just get out of my boat or roll back up. just beware of bridges and caves. Jared no snow melt here very water about 19 degrees. Link to post Share on other sites
kintaro 0 Posted May 19, 2004 Share Posted May 19, 2004 You wouldn't happen to be kayaking Nagara gawa would you Fattwins? I've kayaked nagara gawa, places in Thailand and of course the beaches of Hawaii. Kayaking is loads of fun. But be careful on the rivers! Link to post Share on other sites
Fattwins 0 Posted May 19, 2004 Author Share Posted May 19, 2004 the nagara will be on my hit list this year for sure. My kayak buddy needs to get well before I can go there no fun by yourself plus you cant get back to your car, without much effort. Link to post Share on other sites
