Hucking waterfalls for your 24th birthday
I COULDN’T HELP BUT STOKE on this little edit from Shon.
Dude’s got such a crazy life: He’d just come back from a mission with Subaru at the Outer Banks, NC, and is leaving tomorrow for the X-Games.
In the meantime he had a birthday to celebrate. Here’s what he said:
I wanted to get in the classic Shasta multi sport day and was stoked to get on some low water Upper Falls, a section on the Sacramento, and a solid 4,000 ft of downhilling ending at a BBQ at my house.
Being in film school full time has put a damper on my boating habits but I am always stoked to get in what I can. It twas a glorious day with my buddy Chiseki “The Toothfairy” McConnaughay so sit back enjoy the edit to Ellie Goulding “High For This” and check out some of my local spots growing up.
Happy 24! ![]()
