This podcast is the audio version of the Gear Garage Live Show, where we answer submitted questions and talk all things whitewater.
Topic: Selway Low Water Boat Selection
Does your "bigger is better" advice for the Middle Fork Salmon also apply to Selway low-water trips? Is a 16 or 18 foot boat still ideal, or is the nature of the river different enough to change the advice?
Also, what is a general rule for the cut-off flow to switch out of rafts and into IKs and packrafts?
Love the show, and thanks for all the advice and entertainment!
Topic: Whitewater Helmets
Zach, I'm looking to buy a new helmet for rafting. Can you talk about a few hemlets that you have tried and what would be your top 3 recommendations?
Topic: Cat Frame
I was wondering if you had any recommendations for a day frame for my 12x22 cat, I am looking for something lightweight but durable that’s narrower than 68 inches.
Topic: SPORT LINES!!
Mayhaps you could add your take on a lingering question within the rank and file of the rafting community;
Sport Lines only count if you call them out beforehand correct? Otherwise it’s just a blown line??
