Former model, socialite, alcoholic, ultra-marathoner, bookie, poet, anti-environmentalist, and extreme whitewater kayaker “Boofsquire” officially announced his retirement today , ending a long, storied career as one of the most extreme paddlers ever known. Boofsquire became known as one of the most elusive and loved paddlers of his time, who documented the vicissitudes of his life in witty, sometimes plagiaristic posts on the Internet message board Paddle Prattle , provided to paddlers in the Washington, DC area by the Monocacy Canoe Club.

Depending on the trend of the river and the exact level, it can vary from a flattish, fast wave–perfect for those long front surfs–or a steep, bouncy dynamic wave that gives up great tricks.
