The Time Travellers

Author(s): Chacos Footwear | REI | Northwest River Supplies| Jack's Plastic Welding| Cataract Oars

In January 2017, the USA Men’s Rafting Team set their sights on making history by attempting to break a legendary speed record down 277 miles of the Colorado River through the Grand Canyon. Their goal was 34 hours. 34 hours…straight.

Throughout 2016, we sporadically followed these scrappy, determined guys on their quest…training hard, designing their custom boat, and gaining perspective on what it means to attempt something extraordinary on one of the world’s most breathtaking stages.

The film is a collaboration with Forest Woodward and Brendan Leonard….and would not have been possible without their important contributions of images, words, guidance, energy, feedback, and Yelp-worthy restaurant knowledge.

The film was supported by Chacos Footwear in association with REI + YETI + NRS + Jack’s Plastic Welding + Cataract Oars.
