The Call of the River – Special Extended Edition

Description

Years in the making, the excellent video covers the history of the sport of whitewater paddling.  Pulled from over 100 sources of video and covering 80 years of history, it runs from the wood and canvas canoes of the 1940’s to modern roto-molded kayaks.  Many of the movers and shakers of the sport are interviewed and discussed like Bill Masters, Jimmy Holcombe, Bunny Johns, Jesse Whittemore, Jim Snyder, Eric Jackson, and so many more.  The progression of the sport, both in skills, equipment, material, and knowledge are all covered in depth in this fascinating piece of work.
