Playboating Basics. 90 minutes of detailed instruction on playboating from the ground up. Twice as much instruction as the 2003 version of EJ's Playboating, this DVD is worth adding to your library. The videos were filmed on location in Uganda on the White Nile River and in Zambia on the Zambezi River.
 

 

On Saturday the 2nd of November James Bradley, Pete Henderon, Carl Ross, Mark Shackleton, Justin Gale, Mark Hardingham and Simon Morse were going for an afternoon paddle down the Lyn in Devon UK. In one of the drops Mark Hardingham is pushed offline and becomes 'vertically pinned' with his body trapped and his head held underwater by the current!

This is a rescue the film-maker was involved with on the Cheoah river.

This is the original video of kayaker Jean-Christophe Cabuy getting caught in a dangerous hydraulic whirlpool while kayaking in Corsica, France. When JC is unable to right himself, friends come to the rescue and avert a near drowning.

A kayaker's life is on the line as a sieve drags him under the rapids and his friends try desperately to save his life.
