Nantahala Gorge is one of the top rated paddling spots in the US is just down the road, and it looks fun!!!
As one bystander described it "These guys go out and get stuck in the wave and do everything they can to get out"
I caught a few kayakers out practicing for an upcoming event. These guys pull flips, cartwheels, spins and rolls to score points. You would think the X-Games would pick this up!
