Description

Below the next dam pond is a dam on the right under a green bridge.  This is the top of Spine Compressor, a seldom run drop that requires either very high flows, or heavily damaged splash boards. Go center on the dam and continue down a small wave train towards the lip. Be sure to hit the crease where there is the most flow right of center. A strong boof stomped at the last moment is the only way to have a soft landing. At most there is 2ft of fast moving water down there. The hole after the drop is no joke, be ready for a huge hit. Once you recover another drop is around the bend before you get to a camp site on the right.
