Yep, that wave is called 'Fang'. Its pretty gnarly when the rivers at about 8ft.

Kayaking is actually the least expensive hobby I have (for the ammount of times I go) because once you buy the essential gear:
kayak
paddle
life jacket
skirt
helmet

its free! You dont have to pay to use the river! Also, they just built a surfing wave right downtown near the park, so im gonna be in my boat everyday this summer.

Thats what i keep telling myself, its the enitial buy in, after that its relative to what you break.

I can get a used Dagger for 250$
paddle 200
life jacket 80
skirt 130
helmet 70

all in all cheap for a lot of fun.

Im also wanting to buy a new mountain bike though, and more climbing gear.

Ive never found a Dagger boat that I liked. However, I saw a pyrhana S7 in town for $250. Thats a great deal (wish I had some extra bones laying around... but I have to save up for bonnaroo).

I could do that. It took me a few days to learn how to roll, and a few summers to perfect it in moving water, so expect to swim a few times. But after that, paddling is AWESOME... it takes balance above all else. Ive seen 90lb chicks and 60 year old men that could paddle way better than me. I can surf allright, and go down some big water, but im still struggling to learn tricks.
