(Left Channel) Pancake Wave

Description

Downstream of Elm Street, to the right (near the island) are a couple of shallow wave/holes which (if you can catch them) may allow some fine surfs. You are unlikely to be able to repeat play unless you get ashore on the island and carry a bit upstream to relaunch and try again.

At higher flows (above two gates), a sweet wave forms to channel-left (near the north shore of the river) at the end of the slope/gradient. When this is 'in', it is the best feature for easy repeat play, since there is a huge river-left eddy once you break out of the current.
