River Surfing
« on: November 11, 2015, 06:59:24 PM »
A new alpine sport in my city and into our Rocky Mountains. Took a few pictures at the bottom of my hill last year. Thing is that those waves are made from boulders in the water and of course you will be injured perhaps fatally, but to each his own.

The nearest we come to that is surfing in the River Severn when the bore is full flow .....
