Kosir's Fans:
Our Krew is back together in Chicago for the Outdoor Show at
the Donald E Stevens Convention Center in Rosemont this week,
beginning Tuesday Jan 26 through Sunday the 31st! Looking forward
to seeing all my fellow Illinoisans at our booth, discussing
the upcoming rafting season, checking out the deals, and looking
at some Klassic Kosir's footage- high water and big-time flips!
This is gonna be our 35th year out on the water- GOOD TIMES!
We're closing in on 9 weeks to our Spring Opener in April and
we Can't WAIT!! Log on to our Facebook page and share a favorite
whitewater moment with us, maybe a good story about how your
friend flipped at First Drop, an epic smash off Volkswagen Rock
that dumped your whole crew into the drink, or post a favorite
funyak picture or video... we're all watching Ray's reruns waiting
for the ice to break!
So Remember: THINK SNOW!! Your Guide, CHICAGO

NEW THIS
YEAR!!
Do You still wanna
paddle the Peshtigo when the river is low? Have You ever wanted
to try a real Kayak but didn't like the idea of being inside
the boat? Are You into the river but whitewater adventures just
aren't for you? Do You want a paddling trip to do with the whole
Family, including Grandma & Grandpa and the kids? Or do You
want a romantic sunset paddle with wine and cheese? Well, Kosir's
has something for you!! Tony and Kathy now have sit-on-top flatwater
kayaks available for rent! We start at the tube trip takeout
and paddle 2 miles down the Peshtigo to the next boat landing,
with lots of lilly pads and cattails to meander thru, and beautiful
forests and wildlife to enjoy. It is easy and fun even for the
first-time paddler, just ask Kathy. Best of all, there's NO ROCKS!!!
We hope to see
you all soon!
Tony & Kathy
For those warm weather, low water Peshtigo
days we have tubing below the whitewater stretch. The trip starts
at our normal takeout at the Bridge, and goes for 45 minutes
down to the first boat landing. It is great for the people who
want a more relaxed ride, and almost anyone can do it. COOL!!

last year - Rafting Videos on the Net!
Ray the Photo Magician
says: "I have a page set up now with a growing list of whitewater
rafting movie clips that I made on the Peshtigo & Menominee
Rivers by Kosir's. It is a random assortment of clips. For now here is a sneak peek. There is some great footage of
both rivers, helmet cam footage, and some fun stuff in the flip
clips.
New and not archived yet..
Just the slow motion replay
clips from one of the rafting trips last year (4-19-08). The

Here is a link to the new video clip for the web. This was a
taste of some of a Klassic Kosir's Sunday afternoon's harder
hitting moments. (1:38@8Mb) There is some pretty slammin stuff
on it, check it out.
I made up a little
web clip for you guys entitled 'Inertia', and it
is here. It is
part of a flip clip that I set up as a bonus reel. There is some
fun stuff there, take a look.
Friday June 6th,
2008-I spoke of some
videos to share. Here is a link. I particularly like the Menominee River one." |
