Skook - 2009
Deep in the minds of most all kayakers there exists a wave that forms reliably, has great eddy access, offers up every trick imaginable, is located amongst a powerful landscape, and even instills a sense of respect and awe due to its size and power. Well folks this wave exists and its called Skook. After years of seeing pics and watching video, I finally had a chance to experience the Skook this fall and it absolutely blew away all my expectations. While the que can be long and the journey to it not exactly straight forward if you happen to make the effort to experience this feature I don't think you'll be disappointed. Here's some pics from my journey enjoy,
PS - The new Jackson Star series rocks. I highly recommend a test drive I don't think you'll be disappointed.
