I guess he could'nt wait his turn, he had to get in on my surfing session
Good level for blunts, or spins, hard to loop it at this level.
We actually got 5 at a time on the wave at one point, however my better half (Becky) did'nt get a shot of us.
Dave was rippin' it up. He is the creator of surface dynamics, and started The North Alabama Whitewater Festival (NAWF). He is currently working on a playboat park in the Guntersville, AL. area.
As you can tell from the front spray he was going all out.

All ye Mulberry Fork boaters take note. Although the water is about gone, a few people go up in the afternoon to mess around. I was one of them. Last week I was doing a towel change at dusk and our neighbor had a few choice words for me. Two days later when I went back I had a 'little' trouble with my truck upon leaving the river. The problem turned out to be a half gallon of sand, rocks, twigs, leaves, and a little water to soup things up in my gas tank!!!
Please for your own sake use the changing room. Also do not drink at the take-out, smoke a bowl or have words with McCrary. I must point out after McCrary cursed me I simply left. I did not respond in any way as I did not want to provoke him. ;-O A lot of good that did me.
Please get the word out to be careful at the takeout.
This is the only time this river flowed all summer.
The makings of a good loop is allways a good dive.
After this i go to the bowling alley and drink heavily and chew tobacco
It still had good foam in the hole at low water in 2004
Before the wave got washed out in early 2005
Who knows what trick he was trying, it made for a good shot.
What a foam pile, not too sticky, not too pushy, i love living 15 minutes away from this wave.
