There is no doubt that this 3 weeks has been the best kayaking experience of my life. I have accomplished all the goals i set out to do and there's no way I could be happier. I only had 3 main goals before i got here and they were to loop in a hole, loop on flatwater and because the river is a very safe place to do anything, my final goal was to get a big beatdown which i did today, 2 days before i leave and had my first swim. My beatdown was on right side phils (a hole in the middle of McCoys rapid) which was very bouncy and hard to control but being upside was very confusing and not nearly as scary as i imagined.

Getting my flatwater loop today possibly my biggest achievement because it was extremely difficult and has taken months of practice. Thanks to help of other keeners and the great coaches that are here, it made it much easier for me. It was certainly harder than on a wave because there's nothing to help even slightly so it is all on you. Overall it has been a fantastic experience and the best time of my life.
