@@jcreeker5581 - I didn’t touch the wall but was very close to it. That pocket down in there has been known to flip people in the past. I didn’t hold my left edge and flipped fast. When I went over I surprisingly didn’t hit much. Just 2 light taps on the helmet and my shoulder tapped something too but not hard.
First off I will give your credit for probing what will most likely be the new race line. That said man, the dragon line thing isn’t gonna stick. Mostly nobody likes it. Now I if you keep doing this foolish shit and get really hurt or killed, surely the kayaking community will name that particular maneuver after you. You will be particularly remembered. Good things didn’t happen to most of the people that river features are namesaked. In this clip in particular it’s clear how cracktackularly low it is to be trying that line. I don’t know how you didn’t case the shelf on the way down. As somebody how has hit the self coming off the old pad a few times myself I cannot imagine how violent that could be. I’d also add that if ya cripple yourself access for rescue is a total nightmare, which you probably already know. I am a dick. . . I know. This is not impressive.
Dude, glad you made it. Still looks a little too sketchy though. Also looks like you hit the rock wall on river right.

I want to see this at higher water.
Yea, me too. I would like to get in there after a really good storm.
Sassy.

That just doesn't look smart at all.
