I have seen very good surfers have trouble with river waves, and I've seen absolutely trash ocean surfers crush river waves. The point is, they are surprisingly different from one another and both take lots of practice to get good at.
Sooo dope ❤ im from oregon and theres a manmade river wave in bend im sure you know of, but theres also a suuuuper gnarly (8+feet?) river wave on the clackamas river in spring time. Dont know if its rideable tho 😅 just used to whitewater raft it and its a beast. This spot looks amazing. Thanks for the video
I recall being amazed at the skill of the surfers on this wave. There are signs all over saying to stay out of the water, but they are ignored. Our hostess said they are there just to protect the city if someone gets hurt. .
@@jgonsalk Everyone surfs until they make a mistake and fall,, then eat flushed over the peak, but everyone bobbed right up again, and came back for more. I seem to recall there was a smaller standing wave a bit further downstream that some were surfing.
further down the eisbach1 or 2 swimmers die every year. thats because they tryd to dive under bridges . they hit concrete barriers with their head, get unconsious and thats it. eisbach is only one meter deep and under the bridges you have to lay flat floating on your back. if you do this nothing happens.🙂
I'm from Munich, and Blair on the skimboard is probably the best first try at the wave that I have seen so far! Nice to see you here

Was just bodyboarding at Carlsbad state beach this morning. It was barreling like crazy. That river wave looked gnarly! 🤙🏿
great to see you guys in munich!!

It might have quite a hold down as it seems like it might be similar to a low head damn

Wish I could just drop in like that in montreal. I just tried a smaller board tonight and it seems impossible to paddle in.
What speed wax do you use? I bought some fly-by ZUMwax but it doesnt seem to work as well as yours. Love your videos btw
Blair! I don't know if you see these, but I was wondering if you could make a video about the Wave Band Soft-Skim?
Bring Kai to the freezing cold river wave. the drinking age in Munich for beer and wine is 16, 14 with a custodial parent or guardian.
Can't believe there's NO LINE of people...
I grew up going to the Schlitterbahn in Texas and the line for the surf wave was always super long.
Dope
Yewww!!! Sick riding bro! Keep it up!! Gary is "packing" it ho at 9:43 😂😂😂
Hard shoreline to fall into 😮
Surprisingly easy to miss.
Mike from Waco Surf! Maybe he brought the Schwabies. (people who work for Mike) LOL
What soft top did you ride
The bes natulal river wave.. in some safety an fun
Looks more like skateboarding than surfing. And of course it’s easy when you haven’t visited Oktoberfest first😊
That guy with the mustache looks like a narco cop in Miami from the 1980s.
