Ottawa World Champs

Although none of us competed, for CRMS spring trip we,the CRMS kayak A team flew to Ottawa to kayak and watch the comp.
We had sessions at waves such as Waikiki, Big Smoothie, Buseater (very few rides due to long lines and limited time). Fun runs down the middle channel and a couple down the main. We scribed for hours during the day usually only getting to paddle after the comp.

Golf Course Hole

Golf Course Hole is a small somewhat diagonal hole on the roaring fork, where at the right flow(1350 on the emma gauge) gives up some huge aerial maneuvers!!! These photos don't do the spot justice.
