- Advertisment -

Episode 25. A Spiritual Journey through Poland Creek with Evan Stafford and Leif Anderson

Just to prove how cocky Leif was in his early days, and because it’s one of my good memories of running the Big South, here’s my 2009 Big South video where Leif became the star of the show as the only paddler that day motivated to fire up the big ones.
