Guest Testimonials

Thank you Wet Planet As a kayaker who started in my late thirties, I have had my share of difficulties transitioning from class III to class IV whitewater. This class was a great way to learn some new moves an get on a more difficult river in a more controlled environment. Wet Planet has come a long way since I started kayaking in the Gorge and has brought on board some of the Northwest's best instructors. My biggest surprise was the addition of Nick Jacob who taught the class with Todd Collins. Nick worked with me earlier when I just started kayaking and even taught my son. Both gentlemen are not only very competent, but also have a knack for making even those whose skills maybe aren't there very confident to run some of those harder drops. If you don't make the run and happen to miss your roll............the guys were there to lend a boat bow for a quick T-rescue. Those involved, Liz, Jaco, Todd, Nick and of course Heather (for turning me on to the class in the first place), were a great group of seasoned and fun whitewater professionals. I look forward to my next adventure with you!
