Kayaking on the Ducth Sea

This was a nice meeting with the boys from Holland, cool to see so many people learning kayak.....OOP Holland




Ducth Water dreams











Yap..... Who is going to believe it???... Netherland....flat land... and they managed to build up a artificial river with really nice continuous class III for about 500 meters long, and is under the sea level...jejjejeje
Last October 13th was the Finals of the Dutch Open Championships in Freestyle Kayaking and Boatercross here in Ducth water Dreams.
Was really nice to see all the ducthies fighting for the best time and best score, and not only ducth competitors, there were people also from Germany and Belgium. I was really impresed about the numbers of competitors(names as Casper van Kalmthout, David Joos, Arnd Schaeftlein just to name a few), for sure this sport in Holland is getting bigger and bigger(92 kayakers).also my self representing Chile( I end up on the group of 12, semifinals)
Thanks to www.kanoshop.nl for let us use the amazing solo kayak from www.fluidkayaks.com
Check out the Pics.

Jori River Norway

This is the upper section of the Jori which is pure pool and drop.There is also a lower section with continuos class III and IV. but the upper is way more fun





Nilahue Fall



In March 2007 we drive from Pucon down south to Lago Renco, the mission this time was find a nice drop, we had some info from a group of kayakers that the Nilahue fall had change and became a awesome 10 meters slide with 10 more meters of vertical fall. Check this out.....one other reason to come and visit me. The drop has a undercut on River left, but five of us runed it and no one of us when left....
