Dooley says it better than I can, so check out the action. I don’t think anyone expected anything less from this long anticipated new contribution to the whitewater world.

Thanks so much to Esquif for the boat and support, as well as all the other sponsors, Canoe & Kayak, Werner, Kokatat, and Esqrit. Enjoy your new boat Karl, and see you all on the water.

The Canoe Movie is a look into the passion and pride that is the matrix of the canoeing community. Meet the characters who’ve shaped one of America’s favorite pastimes into the sport it is today. From masochistic, adrenaline crazed extremeophiles to the Southern Gentlemen who built the foundation of whitewater canoesport, Canoe Movie provides a long overdue tribute to whitewater canoeing. Add archived footage from the sports roots and brilliant, current imagery from both the core of the sport and it’s outer fringes and you have a lighthearted and often humorous look into one of the most heckled sectors of whitewater sport.

Preorder/Raffle Deal! Win a L’Edge!

The Canoe Movie is a tribute to whitewater canoers around the world; paying homage to some of the original innovators in the sport, and giving recognition to the passionate ones who live for it today. Not to mention, some of the best imagery and largest rapids run in canoes, ever! From our trip to Ain’t Louie Fest in March with the 100+ people from across North America, to the waterfalls of the Rio de Oro in Mexico, we feel this film taps into the pulse of the whitewater open boat spirit and will undoubtedly leave you with a longing to pick up a t-grip and leave your skirt at home.
To help facilitate this for you, we are happy to announce our Canoe Movie preorder boat raffle. If you preorder a copy of the Canoe Movie before 12PM, FRIDAY, JUNE 4th 2010, you will be included in a raffle for a brand spanking new Esquif L’Edge. The L’Edge is one of the most anticipated new releases in the canoeing world in a long time, and will undoubtedly help you maximize your fun time on the water.

The L’edge has been designed to take whitewater canoes another step forward by combining the traditional appearance from the past with the heart and soul of the future in a package that isn’t boring, bland or just plain “dumbed down”… this is the boat for paddlers that truly want to put canoes back on top!!! – Craig Smerda, Designer of the L’Edge

So when it comes down to it, for $29.95 + S&H, you could win a brand new canoe. Which reminds me, you can buy as many copies as you want, if you’d like to have your name entered in the raffle more than once. The winner will be announced at the Canoe & Kayak Party Thursday, August 5th at the 2010 Outdoor Retailer Show, and posted immediately online. The winner of the canoe will be responsible for boat shipping costs. Feel free to contact us with any questions: lvmvideo at gmail dot com and (828)693-5629. We are really excited about this project and hope that you all are too! This is for you!

More Gold Diggers

wlyons — Mon, 19 Apr 2010 16:18:50 +0000

First up, we have a beautiful golden stroke pulled off by the lovely and talented Carol Westwood. Carol is actually a converted kayaker, which is somewhat surprising because her husband Andrew is an extremely talented and long time canoer as well. Nice line, Carol!

But we don’t want to create any illusions here, so we’ll have to offset that gold with a little bit of a digger. Mark Scriver is another well known Canadian canoeist, and undoubtedly one of the best in the world. But you can’t always be on top, so here’s Mark in a rare moment of flail, with a misguided rock spin. Don’t worry, there’s plenty of shots of Mark in his normal self in the full feature.
