GadlingTV's Travel Talk - White Water Rafting (part 2)!
Ready for part two of Travel Talk's White Water Rafting adventure?! We're taking you on the rest of our white water rafting down California's mighty Tuolumne River on an action packed 2-day adventure. We'll show you what it takes to navigate Class IV+ rapids and teach you all of the vocabulary that you'll need in order to stay dry.
In this episode's couch talk, we'll explain some of the jargon that rafting guides use to describe the river's obstacles and give a short run down of some of the world's best rivers for thill-seeking and white water adventure.
So take a deep breath and get ready for more action!

Love the show, but you guys quit posting your episode to itunes.
I just subscribed to you there and caught up - then you suddenly stopped posting episodes. Except you seem to have them here. It's not that handy to watch them online, can you start updating your itunes video podcasts? Thanks.

I love white water rafting, and this trip looks amazing.
I don't really believe the guide hadn't flipped in years. I feel like that must be a joke.

No joke! At least, that's what he claimed...
Didn't know whether to feel bad or extremely proud.

The second flip was absolutely ridiculous. From what I see, they were in an eddy then lost control of their raft and drifted into a rapid. Totally avoidable if they were paying attention and on top of their game.
