Description
The left and right side of Regional (Rockpile) both lead directly into Shovel Rock Smile Slide. This is a single feature hole that is one of the friendliest play spots on the river. Front surf, spin, backsurf, and enjoy until your heart is content! This has great eddy service and a nice clean washout if you get flipped.
