Kayak Surfing Campus Point, 12 24
I paddled from Goleta Beach to UCSB Campus Point, which is about a one mile paddle, and surfed small waves in front of the Marine Science Laboratory.

The movie was originally filmed in Super8 at a frame rate of one frame every four seconds, the equivalent of driving across Nevada, from the Idaho border at Jackpot Nevada to California, at 2,000 MPH. I hope that it does not make you dizzy.

My favorite, local to Idaho Falls, place to paddle. Drive South of I.F. on South Yellowstone Highway, past York Road, and past the Gem Lake Dam, to the next paved right hand turn, Canyon Road (across the highway from 1500 North Road). Drive to the river and unload. Carry kayak to river, 100 ft. or so. Paddle upstream to the wave train. The optimum flow rate is between about 6,000 and 7,500 cfs....

The Grand Targhee Ski Resort's annual cardboard box race was held on April 12, 2014 and was greeted with much fanfare by skiers and the local media. It was well attended and enjoyed by all, thanks in part to warm and sunny weather (not that common, even in April, at Grand Targhee).

Surf kayaking at Mondos Beach (North of Ventura on the Pacific Coast Highway, near Faria). Small, but very fun, waves.

    Lately, we have been putting in on the north side of the river by driving to beautiful downtown Woodville, and then driving south on 715 E. to the river. The put-in is a little easier than that shown in the video. The paddle upstream from the put-in is about the same.

    The water dropped on the canal I've been paddling. I think it's time to go back and give this one another shot.

    Paddled this 3-8-2018 @ ~6,800 cfs. Just guessing, but it looks like the wave in the center of the river might be better at a little lower flow. Maybe it's just my slower boat (Glide), but it was really easy to fall of the back of the wave.

      You are correct. The best flow rate for the wave in the middle is about 6,000 cfs. At low flow, below about 5,500 cfs, it becomes a rocky hole that is best avoided.

    You still paddling, Sir?

      McKay Andersen Hi Mark. I just noticed your comment a couple of months late. Yes, the center wave is steeper at lower water and easier to catch. However, rocks become a problem below about 5,500 cfs. A higher hull speed boat makes the wave easier to stay on and easier to paddle upstream. Great to hear of someone else paddling here. It's a good place to tune up for river trips and to practice eddy turns, ferrying, upstream paddling, etc., rather than just a park and play wave. The eddies on river left are good for roll practice since the bank is easy to climb out on should, heaven forbid, you swim.
