We got a ton of rain last week! A lot of the rivers were swelling up on Friday and we were keeping our eyes on the river levels. On Saturday, Pete and I headed out for our first session on Neils this Fall. The river level was at 2.8ft on the Vida gauge. It was SWEET! This was the first time I was able to do multiple roundhouses in the same session. I really felt like I was dialing it in. A roundhouse is really just a blunt where you’re not as vertical. The key for me was to hop, edge hard, and quickly transition to the other edge with a strong reverse sweep. Throwing in a back stroke after the roundhouse to keep myself from flushing off was key too. The wave was super forgiving and really furn. I can’t wait to get back and work on my blunts!
