WRONG!!! Cagayan Valley led the way (started)? WRONG!!!!
PATAKA man lang ka ug yawit....
Commercial rafting in CDO started in 1995.i.e. official license with IRF trained guides and maybe IRF accredited too...
Non-commercial/unsafe rafting started in the mid 80's in CDO, i.e. this was the rough and tumble times ....shall we say "learning the ropes"
Nag-sugod na akong mga amigo around mid 1980's pa.
Perhaps... sip-onon pa ka ani nga time
Or perhaps... sip-onon pa guihapon ka karon....
How many are IRF accredited rafting guides in your area?

Mo-hawid ko ako, kanang mo-ambak mi sa tag-as nga Pagatpat or Lambago tree along Cagayan River.
Kay ma-sitak gyud na imong itlog kung dili nimo hawiran tungod sa kataas.
That was a long time ago but you can still swim now even in the lower part of the river system.
Pero ikaw, perhaps ang gusto nimo hawiran is "someones" itlog?
Dili ko mag-pahawid sa imo oi!!!
Sitak gyud na imong angas ...if you try.

CDO tourism didn't spend a single centemos "to be" featured in Action Asia magazine.
But still Action Asia recognized that CDO rapids "led the way"...
You see, CDO is not trying hard to be Number 1 when it comes to whitewater rafting and kayaking.
But still they recognized us....How BRILLIANT IS THAT!!!!
"Outclassed"? Pakita daw beh ang tsada nga Class 3 or Class 4 rapids....asa man?
Dugay na ko ani mangita pero wala gyud picture mo-tunga.
Puro lang istorya.
Kung gusto ka ug tsada... didto ra sa amoa........gee it almost rhymn...

So, it turned out that in 2000 Cagayan Valley started the commercial rafting in this country even before CDO that started 2001 na. If this was the case then the foreign journalists must have overlooked the inaccurate info and should have mentioned Cagayan valley rather than Cagayan de oro. They should be reminded next time that by national scope Cagayan Valley started it first rather than inaccurate claims by CDO. Hasta diay Cagayan valley naligsan sa hype nila.
I did try to research about it and discovered these:
Chico River Quest - Philippines White Water Rafting Adventure - Rafting Adventure - About ChicoRiverQuest
excerpt:
We pioneered in whitewater rafting and made the First Chico River Descent in 1997 from Bontoc, Mt. Province to Kalinga together with three American whitewater enthusiasts who rated the Chico River as a world class whitewater rafting destination. From thence they returned year after year with American volunteer raft guide instructors and trained Kalinga raft guides. It was in 2000 when the first commercial trip was launched with the Young President's Organization of the Philippines(YPO). We lay claims to have the country's first kayakers and lady raft guides. We did First Descents of the Pasil and Saltan Rivers with Tao Berman, a Guinness Book of Record Holder in Kayaking.

excerpt:
In 2001, the Cagayan de Oro Whitewater Rafting Adventure, Inc. became the first commercial white water rafting operator in the Philippines (there are other white water operators in Cagayan Valley and Davao but these do not offer year round operations).

Kataw-anan lang nang last excerpt kay nangita lang gyud ug lusot sa 'year-round' lang pala para lang maka-hype unya gi-ilog dayon ang honor sa Cagayan valley, namakak pa gamit present tense 'do not' aron ilaron mga readers nga dili year-round ang whitewater rafting sa Davao. I'm getting suspicious kapag mga websites or blogs about CDO na istoryahon kay grabe kung maghype to the point mamutbot and magpataka ra sira ang credibility. Even their official website ga-claim metro na daw sila without any accurate basis and ilang officials mismo isugal pa reputation sa Ayala para lang ipasikmura nga nakamenos sila sa Ayala Davao kay 3B ra daw cost over their illusionary Ayala version, then it turned out the former's budget runs up to 5B and theirs are mere hype, duh.
THE ABOVE about when commercial rafting in CDO started is WRONG AGAIN!!!!
Below is the First Rafting Outfitter in CDO. And that's 1995
