An apt analogy may be that whitewater canoeing is like telemark skiing.  More 
difficult, more stylish.  Some people just like it, although almost everyone 
would agree that it's harder.

I'm a telemark skier, and I'm a kayaker.  Don't want to make whitewater any 
more challenging than it is.

Cheers, Jim
