Flows of 203 CFS
The new features at the park are still a test in progress. What I mean is since it has opened I can only say I have been on there with low flows, the highest being 206 back in January 2022.
I was on there again today at 203, now I am not the greatest playboater but this is my thoughts. The first feature I can get on and surf and it holds me in the pocket really well, The issue I have at this flow is my bow and paddle hit the concret ramp as I'm surfing. I think this one will be so much better with more water.
The second feature, This one is pretty retentive. I get in there and it wants to side surf me. its easy to get out of at this flow, will be interested to see how it shapes with more.
The third feature is my favorite at this level. The water comes down the ramp very green and in a fast boat (Axiom, Rewind) I can stay on the green wave. Right behind the green wave is a small hole that my Jitsu will hold in, its pretty mush a front surf as I get spit out on a attempt of a flat spin.
All of the pools are deep enough to roll, but they are not super deep. I havent hit my head but the paddle blade has hit the bottom on occasional rolls.
Look forward to seeing these features with more water.
