How to Not Have Fun at Keeners! - Daniel Mills-Thysen

Not having fun at Keeners is one of the hardest things in the world to do, because Keeners is pretty cool hella amazing. Kayaking all day, every day is just too fun! In fact, I am about to go out paddling very soon after I write this on Friday evening, on one of the best rivers in the world. However, if you really want to not have fun at Keeners, read on to find out how to do that.

Step 1: Be an unhappy baby. Being an unhappy baby is no fun for anyone, but especially for the people who have to put up with you being an unhappy baby. To be an unhappy baby, simply do something spectacular (either spectacularly good or a spectacular failure), and the proceed to have a fit about it. You know you have finished with this step when Steve-O pulls out the infamous picture of what you have become: an unhappy baby.



Step 2: Don't sleep or drink any water. Staying up all night and not drinking any water are essentials if you want to be sad at Keeners. This is because being tired and dehydrated and trying to surf Garb at the same time will very quickly make you sad.

Step 3: Be a downer about everything. If you are having an off day or aren't quite able to pull off that one trick, don't be sad. Listen to what the coaches tell you, and think about it during your next ride. And above all, try to forget that you are on one of the nicest rivers on earth and DON'T HAVE FUN!
