Ryan Scott has been exploring the Pacific Northwest with his kayak

complete collection of his favorite pieces of whitewater.

of whitewater paddling. Since then he has directed and shot
numerous short films as well as a feature documentary, Habitat. His

Jacob Cruser lives with his girlfriend, Priscilla, in Albany,
Oregon where each works through the week looking forward to the

hardshell kayak, Jacob treasures exploratory boating over
all other forms, documenting his adventures at
