Worlds Update

April 24th

At the moment the river level on the Ottawa is about 6 foot too low for Bus eater.
We're supposed to be in day 2 of team training, but the location for the event has not yet been confirmed. The options are, hold the worlds on Wiakiki, a small flushy wave where moves are possible but is very unpredictable, or hold it on bus eater at a very poor level, mostly a big hole, but this means no practice time.

So with this news some of us decided to session a wave is New York state, called Inner City Strife.
What can we say, the wave was awesome, every move was possible, big air, long surfs.


Pringle screwing around

The wave was right next to Water Town, about 3 hours from the Ottawa. It had great eddy sevice, 3 waves in a row the first wave, the one in the pics was by far the best, and the 2 waves behind were good for blunts and back stabs.

Today we're back at the Ottawa and things still aren't looking to good for bussy.

Im going to try and get a video of Inner City Srife up soon.
Update soon.

Snow boating

So we've rocked up at WT and the current water level is 9 on the gauge and the temperature is avreging at around 3 degrees.

A few teams are here already but due to the water level there hasnt been much training going on, the river needs to rise about 5 foot before mini bus come into effect, hopefully the river will start to rise on the weekend.
There's a few small waves to get wet on but nothing of any substance.
Updates on there way.
