All of this Gauley Fest talk has us spending time on Google, searching for the best old school vids that contain spicy yet nostalgic South Eastern creeking footage...We were in a tie between nerve wracking Birthday Eddie action (Green River class V eddie catching at it's finest), or the legendary Buck Fever (which we have posted on here a few times). It was a group consensus that Buck Fever was probably one of the best kayak films ever made - worthy of some nice cheap beer, and and 41 minutes of your time. Even if you've already seen it a few times, go ahead and watch it again - it will inspire you to freewheel off ledge drops that you've been sh@*ting your pants about for the past few months... Here's to Gauley Fest, dirt bag creeking, and all things 8' long with planing hulls, and slicey ends hucking themselves into sticky ledge drops and class V mank...
