We were just out there last night (Tuesday) playing kayak football after they shut the pumps down. Riversport supports it as a monthly veterans event along with Team River Runner and Team RWB. Just so you know, the concrete on the bottom is pretty rough. Ask how I know. The safeties are only there for the rafters and tubers. They do not support the kayakers (anyone not wearing a riversport pfd - which are required for rafts/tubes. You can only wear your own for kayaking)
At 3 pumps the supernova is a lot of fun in the holes. Thankfully they started running 5 pumps on Saturdays this year. Both channels are great fun then. And FYI, the safety folks on the side are only there to assist with raft guest. They will watch and laugh at kayakers swimming😂
the fact that someone thought... you know what oklahoma needs? a rapids park shows you how out of touch our city leaders are. total waste of money. nobody goes because we live in oklahoma!! there is not alot of rapid people here in the plains. only thing dumber would be rock climbing... o wait...
We also have a waterpark here in OKC that's actually called Whitewater lol well it's Hurricane Harbor now but we all still call it Whitewater. So when I saw you at Riversport I was confused.
i used to work here as a raft guide in 2017. I am from New Zealand. my experience was great. i have been commercially rafting since 2011. I am still guiding but not in OKC. I work as commercial guide all year long. The currents are strong the eddies are stronger than what you would see on a natural river also lots of strong holes and waves to surf and ferry in. pretty cool to see River sports still going strong
@@WadeHarrison from screenshots starting about 4:34-4:44 when you look about 90° off to your side, assuming the wall just outside the railing is level and the horizon vs the railing, maybe about 15-30° ± a few degrees. Not accounting for camera distortion, if present.
@WadeHarrison based on the website of the venue, the conveyor pulls you 170 feet, increasing by 21 feet of elevation. Trigonometry would tell you that's a 7 degree slope. [Angle=Sin (21/170)] Hardly 45 degrees. 🤷♂️
Awesome vid, loving all the uploads the last few days. I'm still kinda new to whitewater, what do you mean when you say the eddies aren't very dynamic? And did you ever hear anything from them about the seal launch?
I almost drowned here doing the group rafting. Fell out and got caught in the current. By the time I got up above water my body was so depleted of oxygen I couldn’t move. Not one person helped me or threw me something to grab on to like they say they will. I was stuck in the water for a few minutes until I could start to move my arms and legs and not one bit of help from their team because nobody was watching. Their current is strong enough where a life jacket may not be enough to bring you up. If you go with people please watch them.

Wade, what do you think of the Arcaworks paddle vs comparable Lettman 2 piece paddle for white water and attainments? I'm ordering today. I just picked up my ReactR L!
Well very different I like the arca for all round type paddling attainment playboating creeking ect and the lettman more for big water fast downstream paddling the lettmans cost more but is a work of art in design and feel. the Arca is just a beast of a blade forward workhorse really can go wrong with either.

As a resident of OKC, I find it interesting the water looks clear up close. I drive by this every weekday and from the highway the water looks nasty just like in this video. I’m sure it’s safe, or they wouldn’t have selected it for the upcoming Olympics, but after rumors a few years back of a bunch of kayakers getting sick from it, I can’t bring myself to try it up close. Looks like fun, though! I wonder if they treat & filter the water in any way, or is it not a closed system? Oklahoma is definitely not known for its clear water😂
No. All the people were super unfriendly. Oklahoma is the worst state, with OKC being the worst city in the worst state. Everyone should go somewhere else. Definitely live somewhere else. 100% do not recommend. Tornadoes, and crazy weather. And… scorpions. Be scared, very scared.
@@RomanicusSparticus hahah well I was only referring to the whitewater park not the entire city I don’t think i would ever live there but everyone was really cool with me
wtf are you talking about 😂 we are consistently rated a nice state. Don’t think every state surrounding us doesn’t have bugs and hail? Arkansas and MO seem to have had more bad tornadoes than we did lately. But I do know our state got better when you left! 😅
@@R.D.S.Productions well, I was trying to be sarcastic and convince everyone thinking about moving here to move somewhere else. You can already tell certain parts of the metro are changing with some of the refugees from California moving in.

That’s great they help out like that and yeah I never really hit bottom I’m sure in a full slice or half I would have

Hahah I sure if you were in serious trouble they help
Site of the 2028 Olympics whitewater... Yes, the LA games!
Oh yeah!

@@LeNomEstYves yeah I thought there was something else

Yeah they seem to be doing well
4:36 This guy has no concept of angles. This isn't even 45°.
That’s very Interesting since you know? so what is the degree pitch on the ramp?

Just meaning easy in and out like not very difficult to catch
Denver area needs one of these in a bad way that’s open year round for our way too short of a season. The seal launch was epic!!
Yes I think it would be a hit there

Oh wow glad it all worked out
Think that’s a kind of place that would be fun to see what CK1 or Primo does. Definitely won’t be easy😂
I took a Bonafide RS down it I know the ck1 would eat this up like nothing
@@WadeHarrison I am getting a CK1 later this year hopefully 🤞🏻Might be fun to give it a try 🙃

I wow nice wish this place was closer
No ozone play footage!?? Sorry you leading you to the lamest part of the park. 😂
😂 it was decent over there 👉
Still think it's wild we got a white water park in OKC. Such a cool little rec area over there.
Totally agree

@@WadeHarrison Thank you, Wade!
@WadeHarrison Order #1034 buddy! Magma 2-piece.
Wade I’m going to visit my family in Florida is there any white water park ?
@@Lajon78 Montgomery Alabama the closest to FL
Thank you 👍
The steps at the top of the eddies either side of the chutes are a good idea
Agreed
Such a neat thing for us Okies in the middle of a Prairie! Our state is GROWING! We will be a mini Dallas in another 15-20 years!
For sure great to have something like that in that area
The ramp is def not 60° 😂
Hahah I was being sarcastic
@@WadeHarrison 🤣😭
Water quality looks like old school Charlotte.😬
