garburator!
while i am sitting here on new zealand's countryside at mohaka rafting, enjoying good food (sheep), nice views and learn some technical rafting so that i shall become a kiwi raftguide i got this mail with pictures of micha schomann.
micha visited me in canada for two weeks midseptember to bum around a bit and enjoy the eastern canadian playboat classics... and boy did we get lucky!
our adventures included but were not exclusively limited to: sleeping on a roof downtown montreal, enjoying huge bonfires at big owl's rafting, driving through (rotten) cornfields, getting bitten by cats and....
SURFING.
A LOT!
Lachine, Habitat, Cornerwave, Babyface, ran the Rouge and then BOOOM! Garburator came in! last time i surfed this wicked wave was in 2007, and i had almost forgotten how it feels! well, easiest way to explain it would be: FAST!
like really fast.
while you don't have a lot of time to setup as you're screaming down the pit it does allow for some good air. other than a lot of waves i know you always project forward, upstream, which makes it hard for combos but a lot of fun for airscrews, cleans, back pan ams etc...
anyways, micha in the end sacrificed some precious surfing time and busted out his photo skills! and as photos really only make sense if they get looked at:
HERE YOU GO!

peace!
