Slant

There are two channels at Slant, separated by a small island (Ant Island.)  The river left channel forms a shallow, river-wide surf wave at around 1200 cfs, and as the flow increases, this wave gets deeper and more optimal.  It is usually prime at around 3000 cfs on the Common St. gauge (2000-2500 cfs release.)  At higher levels, water flows over the entire island, the wave starts constricting and becoming more green, and the eddy line becomes faster and harder to cross.  At 5000 cfs, it is a one-boat-wide, green, fast front-surf wave.  This green wave is also fun, but getting into it requires squeezing through the narrow passage between the top two trees on the island and then paddling as hard as you can to ferry across the eddy line.  At 5000 cfs, when the primary wave is narrow and green, a surfable secondary wave also forms downstream of the primary, and the secondary wave is much easier to get into.

The river right channel forms an irregular wave train at high flows.  Some of these waves are front-surfable at 3000-3500 cfs, particularly in longer boats.
