Description

Here you will be see a sharp horizon line with a pedestrian bridge over a channel on the right.  This is easily scouted from the right using the walking path.  You will pick up speed as you proceed under the pedestrian bridge (a bit left of center).  Be prepaired to make a sharp left turn under a second pedestrian bridge (center to right of center).  Now you will hit the main wavetrain and runout to the right.  Huge recovery pool *IF* you've already made the left turn before you flip.
