never stop going!

The season in pucon was short and strong. After too many days there i felt the need of hit the road and some more places. So we left the siphon and head straight in to argentina to celebrate christmas and paddle one of the sickest argentinian rivers!

First day we hit the rio manso, about 50 km. of bariloche. This is one of the greatest and most beautiful kayaking paradises in argentina!

Next river we hit was the rio blanco, some of the coolest drops and slides I've ever seen ar hidden on this one. One of the best runs in south america!
boofing mandinga!
maybe the cleanest drop in the world??

 After having a great time in Argentina for Christmas we left to Futaleufu together with Marcos. This is one of the meca's for all kayakers, "un paisaje pintado por dios, the place is super beautiful, the river is awesomme and the people there is super cool too! No stress in that place!

we attempted a mission to the baker with this subaru loayale 93' . We got stucked on our way down there having to spend a whole week in coyahiqe trying to fix it... it never worked out and we end up selling it for 300.000 chilean pesos.....
biggest fail ever...
