Got 37 minutes on this wave (in my squirt boat) - my arms were dead hams - then got to carry the boat a mile and half back through the woods - fun spot in BC http://www.paddleguides.com/rivers/bc/skook/skook.html    skook1.jpg     skook.jpg  _________________ Go Deep! https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=eu2pBpQolKE blowhard Since 26 Dec 2005 2027 Posts Windward Wed Jun 11, 08 10:11 am     now thats a mushberger genek Since 21 Jul 2006 2165 Posts East Po KGB Wed Jun 11, 08 10:11 am     Hey, no one told me the infamous unstrapped Gman would be involved.

FunShui Since 16 Jul 2006 146 Posts Really, really Stoked Wed Jun 11, 08 11:37 am     That's what I'm talking about! Looks a bit like the Frog on the Thompson. Squirtboaters unite! Friend of mine held the record for this river wave, about an hours ride total and a bit farther away. River Severn in Wales. http://www.tidalbore.info/england/severn_chase.html http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/River_Severn    arapor2.jpg  Gman Since 11 Feb 2006 4911 Posts Portland Unstrapped Wed Jun 11, 08 12:37 pm     Nice I've kayaked in Wales - missed the Severn Bore but hit the Bitches! http://www.ukriversguidebook.co.uk/bitches.htm http://playak.com/article.php?sid=83 my Kayaks have been collecting dust since i sold my soul _________________ Go Deep! https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=eu2pBpQolKE Dunkmak Since 05 Sep 2007 20 Posts Corvallis   Wed Jun 11, 08 12:58 pm     Same here. Went to school at Montana state for two years where I became totally obsessed with creek boating, but now I couldn't even say when I was in my boat last. FunShui Since 16 Jul 2006 146 Posts Really, really Stoked Wed Jun 11, 08 3:12 pm     It's all really good but now that you mention, it I should sell my kayaks (4!) to make way for all my extra kite gear, surfboards, and twin tips. Just got an SST today! Really, life is way too short to not chase all the wind and waves one can. Wales, I really hope to go on a kitesurfari pub tour there some day. With the tidal boars, maybe even get in the kayak or stand up paddle board. I think if I did the stand up paddle I would want a kayak paddle though. Old habits die hard.

Keep the potato chips at the closed-out shore pound, and let the surfers do their thing at one of the best SURFING waves in the world.
