I teamed up with Mark Scriver, a world champion canoeist, to produce this definitive book on the sport of advanced whitewater canoeing.

This book covers tandem and solo in classic tripping style canoes, as well as in tandem and solo play boats. It features state of the art graphics and almost 450 photos!

"Thrill of the Paddle" is the most comprehensive book on whitewater open boating, yet arm chair paddlers will enjoy the candid accounts of the more memorable moments we've had on the water.

"This book is the most entertaining and informative whitewater canoe technique book I've read in years. It may be the best ever.", - Paddler Magazine, October 1999
