This week we discuss an updated best practices questionnaire with improved questions based on feedback and our lively discussion. In our new segment, Zach's Gear Corner, Zach and Steve discuss the River Station B.O.A.T. Throwbag. Next in "The Mental Angle" Steve reviews a few recent pre-trip talks that Zach recorded. Aaron had some technical issues but joined us for the second half to lead us astray on a few topics including how to order the "cool factor" of boaters. Here's what we came up with:

  1. Creek Boaters (hardshell kayak)
  2. Play Boaters (hardshell kayaks)
  3. Cat Boaters
  4. Rafters
  5. Inflatable Kayakers
  6. Packrafters
  7. Stand Up Paddleboarders
  8. Riverboarders
  9. Inner Tubers
  10. Creature Crafters

We want to thank this week's sponsor River Hardware where you can find the WWTC Throw Bags.

Aaron and Zach are generally live on YouTube on Fridays at 2:00 PM Pacific Standard Time.
