Demshitz is here, weathering the weather in Pucon. Lots of rain and cold, not the most motivating paddling conditions.... But thankfully we have this amazing waterfall to keep us entertained and we only have to kayak for a few seconds a day, then off to the bar! Its been a vicious cycle of partying and running Tres Saltos...
Trying the paddle toss for the 1st time and accidentally boofing ridiculously huge.
I’ve run the waterfall 5 times now and Ive been in Pucon for 2 weeks!
My fifth time running the drop I finally got it figured out... photos:

The paddle toss is the way to go... our group has already tallied up 10 broken paddles! As well as two lost kayaks... Pucon eats gear! Bring a couple spares if you plan on doing some hucking!
Our buddy Gringo fired that shit up as well one day pushing his limits with his biggest drop to date.
Stoked!
The drop claimed my paddle this day. Which made me start throwing it. Pretty fun actually landing without a paddle.

Tyler Bradt and Rush Sturges rolled into town a few days ago and we found ourselves venturing back to this epic park n huck. What a day! A total of 13 laps on this big boy and Rush even jumped off the lip once.
The highlight of the day was when young Sol Giadorou decided to fire it up. First Female descent! Go Sol!
Then she went up and did it again!
More later. Hopefully Demshitz will paddle something new soon. Hasta Luego!
