Just another Wairoa day out paddling!
In a van with way too many people and kayaks. A good start to any day on the water!
Ohhhhh first big rapid of the day "Mothers Nightmare" pretty pushy and nasty if you roll as is shallow in places and rocks are hard and hurt..... went all good however!

Off for a little fly into the lead in pool above the "Rollercoaster" drop. Plenty of power = all good.
Pulling out into the "Rollercoaster" in the zone now as it's total commitment and its all gonna happen real fast!
Mystry Mooooovveeeee! Actung! Dive Dive Dive! Thought I had the big drop on the Rollacoster clean but ended up doing a submarine impersonation on landing! Wikkid! What was not so wikkid was whilst upside down and getting worked in the next drop smacked a rock with by elbow pretty hard so that was a little sore. Thank goodness for my paddle jacket with built in body armour!
After all that excitement we hit the Mount for ice creams and bumped into dirty old Lewis skulking around causing trouble. Good man!
