Moved on up the gorge to Wet Bottom. I got lucky with a perfect ferry the first time --- second time took a bit more work. I still believe this attain is made by driving all the way across to the second eddy...the one downstream behind the big center rock. But I did see Tom power up the first eddy recently at a similar level, though he had to work hard for it.
Waves at Rocky were big and well-used --- lots of folks out, including a contingent from Team RiverRunner with Joe Mornini.
All the usual fun for this level...we (Eric, Hector and I) did the attainer's right and the elevator on the left at Center. You can attain straight up the river or work either bank all the way to Wet Bottom. I worked on consistency of form and cadence of my forward stroke --- it's easy to lose concentration after a few minutes. Wet Bottom was pretty easy, with ferries available from either side of the center rock. The reward was surfing at Rocky, though Hector did try the attainer's left attain --- pretty much got plastered on the rock waiting for a surge to attack.Clay's Report
We (Kristin, Ted, and I) brought up the late shift. Let's see, I could still do the chute below md, scrapy but done. The attainers right at Md was too tough today, but attainers left had some promise. basically going out the top of the eddy, catching the wave above md chute, and then a good ferry across. I think its possible, though not done today. Character builder. Spent some time and repetitions doing the attainers right at center. Did the Va slot which was medium, came close to doing the va chute proper but I think its just out of reach for me in plastic. And then the attainers left at Va chute I could do a couple times.
