We took the inflatable Boardworks boards to the Oxley river just after the Qld floods.
We got got smashed on our 3 hour run , all of us had claret leaks all over the legs.

It was fun but at times life threating with the river in flood pushing us through the trees.

Seriously difficult to stay on the boards. We all have white kayak experience but the Sups was so much harder.

Well done, good vid.
You have bigger Kahoonas than me.
Rapids are scarier than big surf, you get stuck in a strainer (i.e. fence or tree) and you ain't gonna come back up.

Good vid Rob but farkin dangerous stuff! Have seen so many near drownings on rivers particularly flooded ones, also had a friend and a mate of a mate drown as well. SUPs look crap in whitewater due to the fact that rule # 1 in whitewater is don't fall in - ever!

The dude at the 8.50 mark looks like he in a bit of trouble.
