In the sport of kayaking, the longer you do it the more you hear about or are affected by tragedy on the river. I am so sorry for your loss, but at the same time so happy to see you continue to push the sport and not give up. It's what Bren would have wanted, Rest in peace

So sorry to hear about your friend RIP Bren

Thank you, Jackson family for always coming out to GoPro games! Was so cool to see your dad compete this year!

these higher flows have been seriously awesome this year, excited to see a different POV of them!

So cool seeing your dad there shredding like always. I still have his instructional DVDs from 25+ years ago!

Your videos are amazing, always fun to watch ⌚ 😂

Very entertaining. Dominating freestyle and picking up an 8-ball win despite brutal battleship attack. Thanks for posting.

cant wait for another vid, keep up the good work!

I`m too old to start whitewater kayaking. Not sure if thats a good or a bad thing. Looks pretty scary 😅

Yeah, I would up your step goal. Too funny. Funny you used an old boat. I would think if you didn't have want you needed, you could just walk into any store that has Jackson kayaks and borrow one. 😜 Nice job and congrats to the rest of the family. Thanks for taking us along.

Youre back! Stoked my Friday!

Loved this - felt like I was there! Congrats on the win legend

Your video was nice to ⌚️ watch. Ps your Red Bull swag is awesome.!

These look so fun I definitely gonna make the trip down to vail next year to catch these

Inspiring

You should be allowed to pull their spice guard off

Dane, I love the stuff you do so much. Have you ran the upper cascades in Washington?

you know you watch too many cliff diving videos when I see the thumbnail and think "dam, that's one hell of a jump ...oh wait its Dane"

Dane you been going to Vail since you were a baby. That's a creek homie.

👏👏👏👁️👁️📽️

Fun to watch. I'll never forget when Eric was competing in the short lived "Gorge Games" on the Upper White Salmon I saw Dane in a play pen in diapers, lol. So much fun to follow his career and watch his videos. Are we gonna get some Cali footage this year?

have you ever tried slalom boats (just wondering im a slalom boater)

Hey Dane, any chance you can film you and your dad kayaking together, I watched your dad win the freestyle pre worlds in 2000 and then the worlds in 2001 in Sort in the Pyrenees, be good to see if he still has it.

So stoked to watch you get the best score of the gopro games in freestyle, and me competing for the first time as a kid. I was in your video 3 times!

"Not going to check because ignorance is bliss!" Hahahahaha! Is there anyone who has done much kayaking and has not jumped into a boat that has been sitting around unused for awhile without looing to see what spiders, mousie poo, packrat nests and other accumulated questionable stuff is in it? Makes me laugh because that's absolutely something I've done many times. I'm always amazed at people who can do playboat tricks one after the other and have it all look good. I would wipe out on the first attempted flip. Just so fun to watch people do it so easily, and even in a hole like that with it's weird undercurrents. It's like watching really good gymnasts going through a really challenging floor routine. I've done a lot of paddling, but the best I can do is an ender. Kinda worthless because I can also stand a boat on it's tail in slack water too. When you know what it takes, it makes it all the more exciting to watch. There are obviously some very good kayakers out in that hole. Definitely a cut above. Was good to see better levels. I remember that last year, after the games, it turned into more of a hike than a paddle, and it was ugly low even for the games. They were putting big plywood boards in the river in hopes of making the pour overs deep enough to get through. Probably not the right place to say it, especially since he never that I know of was at the Rocky Mountain Games, but I still miss Bren. Dane, congratulations not only on all your wins at Vale, but also on your marriage. I hope it will be a long and happy one!

Hey Dane how does the epix compare to the Coros you had ?

what is the last one yall were doing? it was like a team race with defence? and how does the defence win or do they even win? what do i look up to learn more?

Hi Dane, Is there a great falls race this year?

hopefully you got a good chunk of money for that Garmin ad. (which btw, technically needs to be declared as ad placement for viewers in the EU)
