When these adventurous adrenaline junkies first started using the flying squirrel suits in base jumping, it was to see how far away from the cliff they could get. But then things got “boring” and now the idea is to get as close to the edges without actually touching.

Here’s some video footage of me going over Lundbreck Falls on my last kayaking trip taken by my friend Janson.
Also, check out Janson’s enthusiastic report on the trip.
Yesterday I went kayaking down the Crowsnest River with a bunch of friends. It was a stretch of the river that none of us had gone down before, and frankly it was a bit boring with very little white water. At the halfway point we came upon Lundbreck Falls. The plan was to portage around it, but after taking some time to study it, I decided to go for it!
The adrenaline rush totally made my day.
