Italy trip

hi today we played around with ropes in the morning [ pig rigs , v lowers , synge line , vector drag].Then after tying me up in knots we had some food then on to the sermanza grade 4 - 5 the first big drop i took a swim, ledge drop with a hole in the centre i boofed the hole but reversed back into got a good beat down , helmet sucked off me i swam out of the hole all good so got gear back together and ran the left line , all going good , then near the end we all swam for crack .

hi landed in france on monday then drove to italy because the rivers are to high . Paddle today on the sesia and the sorba slides , the sesia is great river not like a lot of rivers in this area , more rapids and less drops , the sesia is grade 4 water levels was good , sorba slides is a quick run over in about 5 min , 2 slides and one drop in between , this is about grade 4 run also and the water level was good
