Rafa Ortiz has found whitewater’s next frontier. It’s a bold place, where few have chosen to go: running giant waterfalls while riding inflatable pool toys. It’s been done before. But not off Washington’s 70-foot Outlet Falls. Definitely next level for the world-class, Red Bull-sponsored Ortiz: “I’ve run a lot of big waterfalls in my kayak but what I really want to accomplish in life now is dropping massive waterfalls on inflatable pool toys,” Ortiz says. “It’s really spoken to me.” We see a run on Walmart inflatable crabs happening any time now.
