Whitewater Kayaking
Here are some pictures from
an expedition on the Schwarzbach river in Austria - probably the craziest I
ever did. I should point out that we did this before jumping these
waterfalls was forbidden.
This picture of me jumping
the 9 meter Schwarzbach waterfall in Austria was taken on August 28th, 1988. On
the bottom-left corner you can see the paddle of my friend Jörg Ipfelkofer,
ready to pull me out of trouble if needed. Unfortunately, after leaving
Germany, I haven’t heard much of my friends at Faltboot Club Bamberg, but I'm
sure they’re doing some even crazier things right now somewhere in the Bavarian
mountains.
This is the second
waterfall on the Schwarzbach. I knew I would get a picture of this, so I tried
to smile...
