Written by Zac Osmond Monday, 23 November 2009 The past couple of weeks Airborn has been stoking the fire for Chile. Paying a visit to some local drops like Plaisance and Colounge...

The truth is that we desperately needed the practice, Kent Bretzlaff, Devyn Scott, Justin Fraser and I have all gone off line numerous times, including going oververt, some close calls with sieves, broken paddles and getting our buts stomped by the hole at the bottom. All this from three low water descents of the Chutes de Plaisance... Bring on the CHilean Goods!

Team Airborn will touch down in Chile on Nov.25th, the plan is to b-line it to Pucon, once New River Academy breaks for Christmas, the entire crew is gonna head to the Point of Wolves in Pichilemu, the site of last years "tow-in " surf World Championships... bahahaha...

It was moosefest so I made my drive over to Matt man and RObins house to pick up matty for the trip down.  I drove in the driveway and realized Something.  I kinda forgot that he coun't come this year.  First time in 15 years he missed the moose festival.  He was standing on his porch with a gun, and a box of ammunition and said.  "wana blow off some steam".  100 rounds later and a smoking barrel he had done just that.....

 


We met at the casino in 1000 islands, the creator of the worst kayaking videos in history.  Scrub that, best and worst.  I like Ben’s videos cause they are real, no cool guy editing, speeding up of moves, nobody talking like they are solving the worlds problems. Cars get blown up, gas tanks fall off, drunks get interviewed, hams get cooked on car engines and the occasional touch of porn gets tossed in for what amounts to No good measure what so ever.  We don’t know why S&M ben does it but we are glad at the same time.  In a bid to keep our costs down we decided that we would sell the heck out of DVD’s to make some money to pay for our trip down.  AND WE DID JUST THAT.  We sold video’s at the take out with a shot of Fire Ball Wiskey out of the H1N1 shot glass.  It was pretty wicked.

Along the way we ran into a huge Canadian Group that was a lot of fun.  We watched the whole weekend as Cale Reeder stuffed leaves into his buddy’s boat and then blamed bobby or Boydo, just to have some retaliation and Boydo’s boat filled with leaves too.  Both of them getting back at each other while at the same time brewing TEA in their boats for the rest of the trip.  We got blamed at first until everyone realized we were at the party and didn’t walk miles and miles to get the Cristy Hotel to do the evil deed…


Anyway People got worked, my buddy had a sweet run through Miggila upside down which ended in a swim,


but there was even a ducky on the river this year.  All in all we had a great time.  The group photo is of the Onterrible crew below Aggers…

Written by Zac Osmond Monday, 19 October 2009 Hi Everyone,

I thought I should let you know that I have now completed an ambition I have had for many years and that is to win the ‘Triple Crown’, i.e. British, European and World Champion. I won the Europeans last year, in September I won the Worlds and last weekend I won the British Championships as well. It may seem small fry compared to the World Championships but it completes the 3 championships.

Thanks for all your continued support and help!

I also competed in the K1 class at the British Championships at the weekend and came 8th. Pretty happy to be have achieved so much this year in the Squirt class but also be in the top 10 in the K1 class as well.

Thanks

James Reeves
