Sheepscot Falls with Kawanhee (part 2)

Hooray, let's go surfing!!! BenCon leading the charge from the front of the lineup.



an overview of the beautiful reversing falls on the Sheepscot



Eduardo throwing down.



Johnny is figuring it out too.



Mr. Watson showing us how it's done.



in between helping out swimmers and losing paddles



a one handed loop attempt





most of these campers had learned their roll the day before. By the end of the session most of them had hit a couple of moving-water rolls









Eduardo had never been the Squashtail before. He started figuring out the boat just as the wave got really fast and difficult. He turned out a couple of good surfs towards the end of the session.

Sheepscot Falls Time Lapse Video

This is a split screen video that compresses over an hour of surfing into just over 5 minutes. It's a great way to see how much this surf spot changes as the tide drops.

notice how there are two main waves on river left, with a short time when people can catch the stuff in the midde. Towards the end of the good surf period, boaters will often head way over to river right where a wave/hole forms at lower levels.
Watch towards the end of the video how the wave on the left side of the top screen suddenly turns into a hole. It's a good blasting spot that washed towards the middle.
